IN THE SHADOWS OF MIND

In the shadows of the mind, a chilling thought,
A specter haunting silently sought.
A whisper in the corridors of the brain,
A dark refrain, driving one insane.

It creeps, it crawls, like a venomous vine,
Entwining thoughts, a toxic design.
A serpent's hiss in the depths of the soul,
A silent scream, taking its toll.

It dances with demons, this thought so dire,
A malevolent spark, an unholy fire.
It feasts on reason, devours the light,
Leaving a void, a never-ending night.

A kaleidoscope of fears, a twisted dream,
A silent killer, tearing at the seam.
It wraps its tendrils around the heart,
Sowing despair, tearing apart.

Yet, in the darkness, a glimmer of hope,
A flicker of light, a way to cope.
For thoughts, like shadows, can be dispelled,
By the dawn of understanding, by truths unveiled.

So face the specter, don't cower in dread,
Confront the darkness that fills your head.
For in the crucible of courage and might,
You can conquer the killing thought, bring back the light.
