In my sanctuary
I am God
Creator and master of words, thoughts, reason,
                         While you…..

You are enslaved
I am your master
Control is no longer illusive
Wishing you were free
                         As You……

You probe my sanctuary
In the corners of my space
Light gives way to darkness
Torched by fluent abstractions
I feel it slipping away
                         And you……..

You have intruded
Stolen objectivism I choke on skepticism
It is where I end and you begin
Broken
How can I exist without you?
Now that I am outside

Not quite sure if what I took from this was what you intended...but it read like a dialogue of the self...id speaks to shadow...a very interesting read.  I like.
