The Goblet

Light shattered in the night,
pieces glittering, mocking my plight.
A smile that never ceased.
Such a mockery, all at ease.

Truth caged inside the mind.
Goblet in hand, full of wine.
A quiet taste that is, bittersweet.
Broken minds never weep.

Mind shattered, from time to time
Bit by bit, piece by piece.
A smile that lie
May be truer than truth that speaks

Emptied the goblet of bittersweet.
Take a deep breath, start weeping.




- Mikhail.
ps. The word "lie" has multiple meaning, think more about it.
