Misery Mirror

What about me!
What about you?
What did I say?
What did I do?
Did you not say?
Did you not do?
Am I a mirror of your misery?
You are dragging me down into your history!
Fragments of truth die inside the fabric of your lies
Falling faster towards the jagged pit of past tries
Your eyes are blackened from the smoke rising from your soul
Where you heart once was is now nothing but a hole
You have sharpened your talons of greed across my hope
The dirt and grim of your actions there is no soap
I turn to run away from the ruins that you created
Fighting the unwanted feelings of being hated
My soul chokes out the poison that it was force fed
Into the light I escaped your prison only to find that I am dead
