Mind Palace
March 13, 2019
My kingdom crumbles to ash
My golden crown grows rusty thorns
My castle is invaded with judgment and criticism
Every dream swept away into the wind
All my plans for the future crushed,
Buried in lies and misconception
Chaos reigns from the clouds
Clear blue skies now black with smoke
Stars wished upon fall from the sky and sink deep into the sea
All my faults turned into weapons
Used against me
My opinions are no longer my own
My palace is now my eternal prison
This is the end of all my fantasies
