The man in the mirror

The man in the mirror.
+++++++13+++++++

The man in the
Mirror grows restless,..
(Hollow eyes seeking
Something to Consume.)
and to himself
Confesses, that he
Craves this State of
Gloom.

"But may the darkness
Of My Soul create
A Light.."
(He whispers.)
"and get me through
another night,
in the Presence of
These Shadow
Listeners!"
(who feast upon
Grim Thoughts
Like Parasites.)


There is Something
In Him Truly Broken.
Not his Heart,
But something worse.
Something Vast, and
Left Unspoken!
(Something Wicked
Like A Curse.)

Morning is here, yet
He Does Not Tire.
Watching the weeping
Man In The Mirror,
and the fiery tears
His eyes perspire.
(To the point cold
Cheeks Grow Blisters.)

"Oh!..
(He screams)
May loves voice
Defeat the whispers
Of these wretched,
Midnight Shadow
Listeners!!!!!!!!!!

(Before they eat my
Dreams.)

J.Stephen.H.
