Court Dismissed

by cassidy-shoop

The path to a mind of insanity can be seen as a gaping hole, the one inside left hollow and empty. Running from all signs of conformity the truth is we are the ones who are full of things only thought of as insanity. Running from our own form of what we see through the eyes which sit inside the skull and wishing to be anything but empty. “Don’t get caught up in the world’s vanity or you will end up as nothing but cold” are the words driving us towards insanity. If the ones only filled with shallow glee could understand our minds were carved from gold and they will be the ones left aged and empty, they would be forced to politely agree upon the ones who have always been whole. They are the jury and we plead insanity while their minds and the prison cells stay empty.
