Reflection

A creature that will never be revered Daggers pierce its heart Love cannot save it from harm Hate will tear it apart Truth will not reach it ears Pain tortures its soul One day death will take it away When this life has taken its toll Hope is a luxury for the chosen. To remind them of whom they are A gift long ago torn from this creature Its heart still bears the scar. Cast away for a trivial matters It has stood the test of time No evil utterance has crossed its lips Its choices have been sublime No crime against the innocent No lie against a friend No selfish actions towards another No broken promises to amend. Never will it again experience trust Never will it experience peace Someday it will carry-on. Someday the pain shall cease. But until that day finally comes. Broken dreams is what it shall see Looking at the reflections of its soul Reflections that show only me
