LOST WITHIN THE MATRIX!

Lost in the matrix

When the beauty of the ethereal
Envelopes the esoteric mind
The natural boundaries
Of language expand
To fill the empty lines
No one knows and none can tell
The darkness, which in the matrix dwells
Only those who with patience
Having pondered in part,
Heavy burdens laden
Upon their hearts
Can see the unseen
There in the dark
Their destiny carved out
With their very own hands
Creating a niche
A refuge from the storm
Which the world cannot detect
Nor can comprehend!

Free verse
Review Request (Intensity): 
I want the raw truth, feel free to knock me on my back
Review Request (Direction): 
What did you think of my title?
How was my language use?
How does this theme appeal to you?
Is the internal logic consistent?
Last few words: 
I wrote this one for a close friend who struggles and though it probably wouldn't provide consolation now, it seemed to then. I have since refined it, cut it up a bit and this is what's left! If it illuminates anyone's mind, although it's appears dark. I've done my job! I eagerly await the response of anyone interested.
