DEATH REFLECTIONS

 

A gaze into those hollow black orbs

Reflects the insanity within

A wasteland of selfishness and control

Once skillfully used and protected

Those who fell within died many deaths

DEATH of fragile self images

DEATH of confidence and respect

DEATH of the heart, mind and soul

So deft at the manipulation game

The players stripped of their innocence

Their souls left naked and exposed

One sweep of that savage tongue eviscerates

Entrails lay in a steaming bloody pool

Now barren within, a life force no longer exists

The puppet maker controls the strings

Making you dance in the cooling pool of blood

Smearing footprints of a past life

A darkness fills and surrounds you now

A seeker of retribution you’ve become

Others gaze into your now hollow black orbs

Seeing the reflection of the insanity within.
