I'm A Captive

Minds stratify in webbed design 
In lone life’s strata snares align
Psychic slide patterns ratify
In webbed design minds stratify 	

Within mind’s wares dark secrets hide
Patterns ratify psychic slide 
Deep silence cold mind never shares
Dark secrets hide within mind’s wares

I’m a captive within my fold
Mind never shares deep silence cold
In shell I can’t be adaptive
Within my fold I’m a captive

It’s always me when I excel
I can’t be adaptive in shell
In the pursuit of ecstasy
When I excel it’s always me
