It starts in our brain
The words, or lack thereof, sting
A missile shot directly at our weakest point
The collapse has begun
Slowly, the mind folds in on itself
You were of critical integrity to our structure
A cornerstone that was ripped out
Nothing to fill the void
The emotions will follow
No logical thinking to keep them at bay
They flood the body
The body would fight them if it could
But the Trojan horse is in
The gate has been put back up
The body was none the wiser
The emotions are only
The beginning of the end
Without the mind to control the thoughts
And with the emotions engulfing the body
It’s only a matter of time
Before the body goes too
Unable to resist any longer
On the floor, broken
Awaiting repair
One word or phrase
Followed by destruction
