Storm unveiling from eyes
Comes trickling raindrops
Down the rugged cheeks
Slipping vile through cracked lips
With trembling hands
I smash teary mascara
Lying make up messed

From pierced heart
With a dagger of your lies
Sitting in darkened corner
Under florescent light
Muscles tensed
Vocal chord speaks no more
Mind goes to numbing spree
Eyes pick the slack
Yelling louder than words

Filled with deceitful hurt

But filth reflected in the mirror
…Broke the reflections into pieces
With bruised fist
And woke up sweating
Something left far behind
Buried deep in the past
So I thought
But, it keeps popping back
Ashamed I still see
Reflections of filth all over the place
But ssshhh, still can’t tell

Author notes
Sometimes reflections never leave your sight... for night comes shadows of mine, comes following...daylight breaks shadows run to hide... waiting for the night... and it pounces back
In a list
Please tell me what you think
