"Mirrored Fragments"

 


There are those times...

In moments...

We all fight that war

Our thoughts against everything else

The heart holds out

Each beat keeps the feet marching forward

But the mind secretly knows...

And the senses just don't seem to want to let go...

How do we weigh out what is right?

And what is easy?

For the actions taken against us have become too much

Numbers have stopped counting

And  the cup runs over the brim

The scars upon the broken never even have a chance to heal

A thousand mirrored fragments

Cast shadows offensive to the eye

A smiling face covers the deceitful mouth

Weak lies fail to lead us back to the sunlight...

Apologies for behavior that never changes

Becomes those days with the inability to remember

That forgiveness is being pushed aside by something more...

The lack of conviction found

In all that use-to-be...

Now leaving...

The heart that no longer cares...
