What insidious appearance have you once again made, when I thought I had sent you to the bottom of Hades’ world? But I see you’ve resurfaced, this time as a ghost occupying the mind’s house, as you attempt to haunt me and make me feel the horror through those thoughts of illusionary reality. You have reacquainted me with your world, making my world one of desperation, leaving me searching for my sanity to find. I fail to understand your presence, and attempt to shake the foundation of your non-existent soul, but you overcome my wishes, and leave me in a state of utter despair, as I look to sever the thought bonds that you’ve created. You are the evil in my world, the insanity of my existence, as you force me to my knees. And while I attempt and hope to conquer and overcome, it is clear that your goal is my misery, as you create chaos within my soul. So be it….present to me what you will….attempt to trick me and hold me in your grasp….manipulate my mind and thoughts….make me feel the fear…. But again, this time, it will only be short lived….for I will once again….calmly….but surely….send you away from my mind’s eye, and have you disappear into the depths of your created hell.
