Infractis

A broken image is all that remains
The pieces of my life, littered the floor
Rearranged into a maze of bloody stains
A mosaic of hatred and rage
The lion has been unleashed
Removed from his invisible cage
I forgot to tell you about the pain
It must've slipped my mind
Elements of unforgotten disdain

Emotion is all that drives me
Adrenaline eats at the walls of my sanity
The cut so deep, the madness so hot
Nothing left to suppress the indignity
I told you I would scare you
The violence forcing you away
So dark are my dreams, so lost is my mind
Even the light has slipped away.

In the narrow halls of my own dissidence
Amongst the tattered remnants of my life
Seeds of hope sprout amidst the darkness
A calming shadow over the endless strife
When you were gone, there was nothing left
I crumbled into the sadness
No pain can stop me. No mark is forgiven
No cure there is for the madness.
