The person within

when you said you didn't care
It crushed me
I crumbled into pieces.
Shattered like broken glass
sadness devoured me.
The harshness in your tone
the cruelty in your voice.
hidden evils suddenly exposed
showed no compassion
nor sympathy

Empty truths now filled with lies
puzzled thoughts
As I put the pieces together
Realizing I've been mind trapped
like walking through a haunted house
escaping to the door
I must get out!
