Selfassault
Deceived her without success
Read like a headline brutalized with attitude
Forced to confess use on own time. First relapse
Never a last, intoxicating crystal chemo blast.
Cracks filled with grime, dirt of the past. Lying
Useless slime parents a mold and I'm a cast
A mirror of mistakes – surrounded by fakes
Repeating the same actions without any success
Mirror of mistakes
The mold of the past
The present – the cast.
