An idea
Formed from nothing
Grips the mind
Squeezing
Until reality is unrecognizable
Pain seeps in
Through self-inflicted wounds
Perception
Once sunny
Now in shadows
Fighting hard to see the light
To step into it, again
To see through it like before
The mind leads down twisted paths
To find its way back to the beginning
A new light
Yet, shadows linger in hidden corners
Tainted yet free
Thought, imagination, and fear
The worlds most powerful words
