Reflection

When the day is done,

I've close my eyes and have resigned

the troubles of my life,

I look into the mirror inside my mind

And see around my heart

dark and light entwined.

Round my neck

The cold chains of death

Draw tighter evermore,

Straining to release my breath

And let me inhale nevermore.

My hands are stained with the Blood of my innocence

Mind and heart torn apart,

A violent dissonance

No unity, they won't agree on what to be, giving me,

Confidence in my incompetence.

Never before was a mirror so true,

That's what's inside of me,

Now what's inside of you?
