The Power of Manipulation

Manipulation consumes the soul,

Slowly deteriorating your personal goals. 

 Dreams evolve into wishes,

 Wishes evaporate into thin air.

Before you know it,

You're existing in complete and utter despair.

 Redundancy no longer offers tranquility, 

 Stamina is at an all-time low,

 Confidence has been distorted,

Reality or illusion,

However will you know?

 Continously thinking about the situation at hand,

 Leaves you in a repetitive cycle you refuse to understand.

 Release yourself from this inner turmoil.

Your enemy is no other than you.

You've allowed your critical thinking to manipulate and stifle the optimistic you.

 Submit to your desires,

Be persistent in achieving your goals.

 For manipulation should be treated with scrutiny,

To cultivate a peaceful soul.
