Man Within The Mirror
A stranger lives within the mirror;An unbearable past echoes through his eyes,
Screams of misfortune never wither away,
Like the undying threads of life;
Abysmal suffering of animosity never fades,
Although the words live in silence,
As the men in their graves.
A stranger lives within the mirror;
An undermined heart weeps in agony;
Dying blood coursing through his veins,
Like an ambient angel of death,
Bearing his lifeline in his hands,
Death engulfs his grinning soul,
As the black plague back then.
A stranger lives within the mirror;
An unrestrained expression on his face;
Waterfalls of tears overload his emotion,
Like the blinding, historic flood ages ago;
The vacant man, depressed beyond words,
And living within his own asylum,
As the abandoned, worried, insane man.
A stranger lives within the mirror;
An uncontrollable burst of love for another,
But, within, the heart cannot deem itself,
Like the forsaken black swan;
His family absconds from him;
The adversity allured his aftermath,
As the ultimatum of Romeo.
A stranger lives within the mirror;
A unanimous lust of crime,
Craving the adrenaline rush of burglary,
Like selling his soul to Hell’s Motel;
A living nothing to mankind’s existence,
Exists within the man stealing everything,
As the robbers of the ancient pot of gold.
A stranger lives within the mirror;
An unbelievable thought, now haunting;
The restrained ember burning within these men,
Like the shining savoring soul, dancing blissfully,
Replicates the luminosity deep within my eyes;
The men branch off my journey through life,
As the branches of the old willow tree.
Shall I be of one that cannot be heard?
Shall I be of one that commits suicide?
Shall I be of one that suffers depression?
Shall I be of one that cannot love myself?
Shall I be of one that means nothing?
Shall I be of one that knows not of the future?
Shall I be the man within the mirror?
