Through The Glass

Through The Glass

A Poem by mac

she’s been broken and beaten

but no one see’s the scars

maybe they’re not on the skin

but when she looks in the mirror they are


she thought she had a heart

but that was years ago

now she’s just an empty shell

with no where else to go


when i look at her

 i see shades of the deepest blue

don’t know how but i’m always surprised

that so little light shines through


because to everyone else

 the sun’s what they see

a bright happy smile

but it doesn’t fool me


she wanders the city

alone in the night

each step is a battle

each breath taken with all her might


no one sees her fading

or really even cares

the lost girl, the broken dream

isolated by their stares


Through the glass i see

those dead, soulless eyes

abandoned by sun

warmed only by their lies


That deep blue drowns me

pulls me to the floor

and i can’t get up for help

forget opening that black door


I’ve forgotten how to ask

or how to take a hand

but now it’s just to late

say goodbye to this godless land


those who would help

locked outside

trapped in this hell

i created, where i hide


She lives in this room

no windows, no light

just one black door

we’ve lost this fight


me and her, we’re one

doesn’t anyone see

and now i think i’ll rot alone

what a terrible end to this story


but if someone finds this,

and it’s not to late

open that door, please

help me escape my fate
