I stare into the glass,
I see no answers there.
The frost has settled in
Once again...
I remember when
The angels weren't in flames.
Now those fallen scream incantations,
Destroying me.
I have strengthened the right hand of God,
Yet somehow kissed the cheek of the beast.
Now the gates have closed in fear of me.
I wait, but hear no applause.
For the love of life, I'll smile.
For love unfelt, I'll cry.
The peace of completion enslaves us,
But that’s a privilege, not a right.
I'm young, but I'm aware,
These soulless vessels have no care.
Puppets on Kali's strings,
Ignored and unseen.
These walls put on a slideshow of all I've said and done.
With a sinking heart I'll face them, because there’s nowhere left to run.
Acts of noble selflessness, it's what they've always said.
I've lived through these words and was hopelessly misled.
I've tried my hardest to never fail,
All I can do to stray away from old trails.
But just when I think I've made a difference,
The insignificance of all I've done prevails.
I stare into the glass,
I see no future there.
My eyes are blurred with damage,
But I reluctantly continue to stare.
