Chapter 18 - Seal

To conceal is my only goal"

"To conceal myself and my feelings from my own soul "

I want to manipulate myself and keep me, in the utmost control

To control myself , I had vowed to be never whole

Hated everyone who criticised my way of living and tried to console

Yet tired of keeping the constant patrol

With this in his mind the man took the slow stroll

He was sure that someone had crept inside and had ,stole

Stole his heart and now afraid he was of the power , that one did hold

The man's head, low, he kept looking at the land covered snow.

While his eyes saw the white his mind wanted to know

Who would even make an attempt at his blackened heart though?

His heart had already stopped and he made sure that it had lost its glow

So that he could never deviate from the system and just let them flow

The one thing he thought was perfect and wanted to show

He had long shifted his focus on the mind that he wanted to grow

Now he wondered who could've made the journey to the ugly low

While he reflected upon his state

He knew it was just too late

Soon enough he will have to pay for it with his deepest undesirable fate

Oh the irony he was suffering and the feeling that did await

The tremble he felt, from the emotion of love and what it could dictate

Maybe there was another way and he just had to wait

He went to the two guards he had appointed for the gate

Trauma, and low self-esteem the two great

When he inquired they answered that, yes they saw a bait

The bait was peace and satisfaction and no more self hate

The man gaze was now filled with despair and he tried to look ahead straight

This promise and bait was not something new

He had heard that some achieved this state and were lost in peace although very few

That's when he started to search for the memories of the time it had due

He concentrated and tried to review

That's when it suddenly dawned on him and he came to knew

He was also a part of heist crew

The crew, small ,only made of two

He was the one that had the guards withdrew

So that his heart could be stolen or rather given the word that seemed true

The question still remained of the other who

This left him feeling even more blue

As he let his feelings flow it seemed to reveal

That his sole goal in this all was to heal

To be able to finally feel

As he remembered his partner in crime the smile he couldn't conceal

It was finally time to stamp on the scroll the inviting seal
