Found is assurance through certainty, simple truth
Mind often altering purity in view

Contemplation begins, thoughts manipulative in nature
A reflection not faulted, though a future worth measure

Alleviate the burden, Mind’s medium of choice
Imposition of effect, upon thoughts seeking voice

Action void responsibility, infectious to the mind
Morals, pride and value run rampant, lost in sight

Expectations become me, increasingly complex to fight
Immunity out of reach, I concede, I'll comply

Reluctant addictions substitute lost self-control
Innocence effected; self-pity, self-woe

And what is forgotten, no longer my truth
Despite changes within, only in difficulty, I'm soothed

With ease in this moment, inevitable strain lies ahead
Addicted to thought… figurative gun to my head
