"Numquam finitur, donec vita finiatur."<br /> - K. D'Angelo Alexander


In the labyrinth of his fractured mind,

Where reality and illusion entwine,

A man grapples with shadows unseen,

Lost in a world where boundaries teem

 

Visions dance in kaleidoscope hues,

Whispers beckon from spectral views,

Voices echo, relentless and wild,

In the depths where sanity is beguiled

 

He wanders through corridors of fear,

Where every shadow could conceal a spear,

Paranoia grips with icy hand,

In a landscape where truth shifts like sand

 

Faces morph into masks of disguise,

Time unravels, truth becomes lies,

Yet amidst the chaos, a flicker remains,

A soul yearning to break free from chains

 

In the silence of his turbulent mind,

A plea for peace, a desire to find,

An anchor amidst the storm's cruel spree,

A refuge from the stormy sea

 

May compassion guide those who see,

Beyond the veil of his reality,

For in his struggle, courage prevails,

A spirit resilient through endless trails

 

And in the end, it's all just inside his mind

Turning, and tossing, in turmoil for all time
