Locked in the Mirrors


I was a stranger unto myself until

my reflection quivered in silent streams

The sands of time had come to stand still.

when I revered my love, lost in dreams.

I was a failure unto my success until

my brand battled in its black hole.

The frozen time took me downhill

where I fortified my feeble soul.

I was ugly unto my beauty until

my scruples made me virtuoso

The sempiternity let me fulfill

what I always implored to follow.

I was quiet unto my crimson until

my nerve lost to the covetous universe.

The tears of blood sated the quill

while I reveled to exalt the damn verse.
