There's a kingdom in my mind
A kingdom on which my Sun shines upon
The Sun is the light of reason
And I sleep in a chamber of my castle
In the highest of towers
I await the awakening
The light shines on me
Through the small window
But it does not penetrate the solid rock
From which I built this fortress
Aeons ago
I used to be ancient
My castle is guarded by horrible demons
I keep them malnourished and furious
In the trenches
They feed on warm thoughts
Which are scarce
Deep beneath the surface
Lies the dungeons
I captured my feelings
And I locked them away
Away from the Sun
Hate - It is my hound
Always beside me, ready to attack
Tethered to my essence
But each time I command
It looks at me and I fear it might
Turn on me one day
Fear - Has escaped again
It is the Houdini of my realm
It lurks in the darkness of the ceilings
Climbing the walls
Always influencing me and my deeds
I am sick and tired of it
Guards! Seize the infidel!
Hope - Hope was the first to die
It couldn't take it anymore
Committed suicide
Hung itself
With its own entrails
I fed the carcass to my hound
Love - Bound in barbed chains
Into awkward positions
On the cold stone walls
Thousands of fiends torture it
Rape and lacerate
My hound licks the wounds
But it keeps smiling
And the devils cry out in frustration
"Why won't it die!"
Despair - Is my rogue
It spies on my enemies
Weakens them, poisons their food
So I can land my final blow
End them
And let my hound feast on the corpses
Joy - Was never a true part of this realm
I banished it long ago
It was the clouds in the sky
Blocking the sun
Sun is always in equinox
Day and night
It is all the same
I have no idea where this spawned from.
