Black reflections

The reasons
For my toxic
Existence is
My heart is broken
Into pieces
My soul is
Hollowed
From the grieving
For my lost seasons
Of youth
Spent in
Intense retrospection
Reflections
From a cracked mirror
How am I
To reassemble
My being
From the start
I was crippled
With
Knowledge
That my temple
Was filled
With the liars
The forsaken
I suffered treason
A betrayal
Of epic power
And all I needed
Is a sleep
Consuming me
In a glowing dream
Instead there is
An oncoming storm
Of delirious thoughts
Betraying me
With enemies
Who refuse
To be gentle
With my fragile form
And now is the hour
That I pay the toll
To the ferryman
Why didn't I do this
Sooner?
