...Lost Reflections

By SolApathy

 
Euphoric melodies entice the rhetoric of my compulsion
I see in your dismay -repulsion
Glitter exploded within my mind
Shrapnel of terse memories-- blind
 I feel the flood of lost time
Parallels of universes never explored
My own thoughts I abhor
In this chaos bomb my insanity revolves
Forgotten sun laces the glitter with slivers of cool light
Enticing my neurons to fight
Random in their firing
I can only smile as I endure my rewiring
Look to my soul as you realize
These eyes no longer reflect this earthly sky
Long ago I said goodbye

    There were a lot of great lines in this one, but my favorite is the notion of shrapnel of memories...that imagery is exquisite! Ciao, T/S Scholar

    Like looking at yourself through the eyes of another; such a reflective write filled with emotion and regret, yet beautifully composed ... ~Devlin

    The pain here is palpable. I can see past this and the words to understand the feeling.
