…Awaiting upon a reflection never to be seen again…

A severed mind burning with hatred’s scalding fever, twitches from itchy irritation
As a heart broken from hatred’s swinging hammer sets out with sorrowful determination
A soul is left alone to think and ponder on a life that should not have been
As this clear water darkens upon a reflection never to be seen again

The wind wisps softly upon deafened ears
A tranquil mask hides the scarring tears
Blackened eyes stare down upon deaths poisoned knife
With a wishful thought to put a final end to this life

Down a beaten path, torn bleeding feet lead a trail to the land of the unknown
Touching thorns that scrape the skin off fingers and pull the flesh from bone
A wondering soul is lost alone in a world that is too harsh and mean
As this clear water darkens upon a reflection never again to be seen

The lightening strikes softly upon weakened skin
A contorted mask no longer hides the deadly sins
Blackened eyes stare down upon deaths poisoned knife
With a wishful thought to put a final end to this life

Upon a fading reflection a soul looks down
A plastered smile cuts into a well worn frown
With knife in hand this soul shall soon run free
Letting go of the present and the pain to live forever in misery
