I saw it!

The puppeteer of the mind,
Within the bouquet of withered flowers,
Lonely souls it devours,

The silent corridor of dreams
Stillness that lingers in the air,
A powerful moment,
Sensing the might of tranquility,
A looming nothingness with a purpose,

“You should have known I would find you eventually.” The man declared with a victorious spark in his voice. After scratching his head, he run his fingers over his buzz cut. His leather jacket was zipped up to his neck. He wasn’t ashamed of his scarred hands. The pair of jeans he was wearing was dirty and cheap.
