A Mirrored Mind

Little escapes a mirrored mind Questions, thoughts, and lingering doubts All twisted and mangled together at one time Never finding an escape out. Memories of times good brings smiles Followed quickly by sodden pain Memories of all those many miles So much lost, yet so much gained A life of intrigue and madness Fun and chaotic hell Tears of joy and of sadness Finally extroverted Then deeper in your shell All of this jumbled together Will it end…NEVER Your mirrored mind Will forever lead in this game As it slowly and methodically Drives you insane.
