To What Have I Sold My Soul?

By Cwn Annwn

I bring forth the mirror
Stare back at the girl with the grim reply
I long to kill her, to rid the world of her failure
Just to carve out one dazed eye
Slap her and make her cry
Wake her and find out why, find out something
Anything to prove she has a soul
Anything to prove she isn't I
Because sometimes I forget I'm alive...


I lay broken on the floor
My life in pieces
Lacking a reason to live a day more
A reason to face the things life has in store
After 3 years of silently watching
I put up a wall and watched from that small hole...
I closed my heart and now I'm to weak to open it
Lost all reason
Failing to feel...failing to speek
I must have sold my soul
Because It's failing to be found....

    darkness and absolute place inside you where there is complete emptiness awith no light to guide the way. everywhere you stretch and try to feel you grasp nothingness yet it is something
