Life- a mirror

Her eyes open, open to this glaring myriad of mirrors
Mirrors that reflect off her innocence, her inner desires
She breathes, breathes in the intoxicating, poisoned air
Poisoned by the infinite elements of human nature
The conscience of a thousand minds,
The harmony of a thousand strings,
The innateness of a thousand beings,
All in a single confine
All in a single reflection

She rises from the delve of the unknown
From the graveyard of a million screams
To seek sanity in a new beginning
To seek purity in new faith
All she wants to see, remains an illusion
All she wants to feel, remains a dream
Smothered by a smog
It gets hard to see, hard to breathe, hard to feel
She feels it slipping away
She feels it fading away
Into the darkness, into the void

Her feet are sinking, sinking in the red sand
She lay tied down, the creepers entangling, choking
She begins to fall, deep into the abyss
Into the depths of the unknown
It’s the beginning of an end
The beginning that never began
As she falls deeper, her heart beats weaker
Her senses keep her alive, alive to feel the pain
To feel the stinging, the blinding light ahead
To feel a new beginning, a hope that it begins.
