Chapter 1

One.

Lone.

Caster of thoughts.

Assumption. Presumption. Over-thinking

Leads to inaction. And when my head speaks

I don't want to move. Passive.

Wander in to taste my bitterness,

I used to breathe in candlelight.

Sending out ash with my voice. Now

I cannot remember why I wasted

Precious words.

I hide, speak to no one of these

Figures. Place me in lucid.

Idly awaiting pastoral dreams.

Idyll for most things, I stay in the past.

In one's right mind, I am veiled mania.

I tell myself, I am one —

But soon forced, bound to say

I am one of many.

About the Creator

Schizophrenic Soliloquies

A plethora of worlds in my mind.

Have I found myself; or have I only found things people like and agree with?
