Trapped
He was trapped
by the walls around him, and the thoughts blurring his coherence
Time was but a word
and the absence of it further ravaged his mind
He was at war with himself
questions with no answers, and false acquisitions
The pressure amounting on his mind was too much
His self proclaimed insanity knocked on the doors of his conscience
and he finally opened them
Unlocking the gates into reality
figments of his imagination spilled into the world
He wasn't the only one to see this
others gazed upon his work
Some amazed
most horrified
The thoughts had no prejudice
and prosecuted anyone
His influence spread like a disease
its victims seeing the world through his eyes
Those opposed were silenced
those who listened were praised
Countries were no longer separate
they all converged under a single rule
His ideas were worshiped
revolutionaries were hunted
A new world baptized in the blood of the innocent
or the guilty, depending on the day
And all of this because he was trapped
