They lurk in the deepest depths of the mind,
waiting for the perfect object and time.

They existed before the birth of the body,
they will go on after its death.

They are capable of enslaving your existence,
just one of these if strong enough can eat up your whole life & thrive.

You may think that you own them but it isn't true,
ask yourself where did they came from and you'll get no clue.

Your own desires will pave the path for your destruction,
yet you'll pretend to own them just for your ego's satisfaction.

They will enchant your mind and put your heart into a trance,
by the time you become conscious, it will be too late for you to stand a chance.
