Life In a Mud Puddle

looking into that puddle
reflection of my dirt covered face

slipping and sliding
in that mess of my life

no holding back
what I need to say

no way out of 
this bubble I'm trapped inside of

i can't see out 
but you can look in

seeing me fall
seeing me break

you cringe in resent
of having to see me this way

trying to look away
seeing my face filled with tears

you fall to your knees
screaming, pounding your fists

torcher has no end

ok so I would have to say this is not my best at all. I just joined the soup and I wrote this midnight. I'll for sure post some of my best.:)
