Riddles of the Mind

What is seldom heard but never believed?

What is constantly heard and always believed?

What is not real but is everywhere you look?

What is not there but felt by many?

What cannot be held but many can possess?

What is created in the darkness but hides in the light?

What is born of shadow and fire but rebirth freedom? 

What is invisible but is part of you?

What is a single flame in endless darkness?
