Thoughts are Real Forces

thoughts are real forces -
how do i know this?
because pain is the colour red
that flows to nothingness
only once the imagination has transformed it
by letting it
glide along the planes of the rainbow to a serene lilac;

thoughts are real forces to be reckoned with,
because they are empowered
by emotions,
become magnets of likeness
attracting
the good and the bad
of your psyche
and mirroring the dreams
and of fears of your soul.

and thoughts are real forces because
you can feel them,
taste them,
want to throw up last nights dinner
because of them
and be deeply seduced by them
all at once.

Indeed, thoughts are real forces
because
they
are your beginning
and your end.
Unless you master them.
Then you are the beginning and the end.
And they are the thread that you use
to weave your wishes and your dreams;

they are the thread
pulled through the needle of desire,
inspired by the vision of
a tapestry rich enough to
entice you,

and just enough to embrace
the hopes of all of humanity.
