Twisted thoughts
In a demented reality
Everything that's 'normal'
Holds to a sick analogy.
A happy thought to some
Is much different in here;
An ambiguous picture
Turns to that of pain and fear.
It's as though no one can get in
As can nothing find a way out.
Words cannot explain
All the things it thinks about.
So call it what you want
And curse it as you may
But just keep in mind
This predator always catches its prey.
Tried a new tone that I refer to as 'Twisted Poetry'. Just been in a sort of darker light lately and decided to reflect it into my work.
This one is supposed to be a sort-of analogy to my mind and an attempt at explaining it in any way. My inspiration was from my psychology class where we were learning about TATs (a personality test with an ambiguous(no emotion) picture that you create a story for)  and my teacher had us try one and I was sickeningly surprised at what the story turned out to be. It was not like anyone else's and I took it on a personal level in my thoughts. It was a strange phenomenon but nonetheless an experience.
