The Man in the Mirror
By Lexicon
I told myself, I wasnt going to do anymore without him,
But then I decided, I would waste away just the same, without him.
I fooled myself into believing that I love him,
But then, I made it impossible not to think of him.
I used to think general thoughts,
But now, to me, those thoughts are lost.
I used to be neither happy, nor ever this sad,
But then, I met him, and I wish I never had.
Never was I satisfied with a title so frivolous as "friend",
But then, it became a majic trick that I could not mend.
Since then,
I have done lots more without him,
I have thought endless seas about him,
I am now, so viciously wrapped in sollice,
And I do not recognize these emaciated wrists.
This dizzy head rush when I stand,
This effortlessly emaciated capsule of what I am.
This crystallized heart, that bleeds nor feels for any one.
This inhuman thing, whose darkness manages to brilliantly color a mood
ring.
I no longer know who I am,
Whose are these brittle, boney fingers?
Pathetically though, forever will I know,
that love for him still lingers.
