Unknown

Nothingness, we all start there,

A spark in the unknown,

Flickering in the shadow of a corner,

Shying away from the rest,

Thinking, waiting to be discovered.

Each one differing from the last,

Moulded into something more,

Evolving out through a dangerous place,

The voice of the mind, it goes on forever,

Limitless, yet so small.
