Mirrored Sky

The sky is mirrored into her tired soul Alongside of her blatant mistrust there Is a lightening flash of minute enroll Her whole feelings are in disarray here The causing of a plethora recess The sky is mirrored into her tired soul She falters to the spell of her buttress All of this frolicking comes by her toll Her heart will become as sheer black as coal Wounded her tiredness bleeds as sore fiction The sky is mirrored into her tired soul Her lifeless stare enters sour depiction Terror that is within her eyes comes forth Twilight distrust is out beyond her shoal She evaluates just what is her worth The sky is mirrored into her tired soul
