“Silent Screaming”

I've fallen through the looking glass,
Its reflective shards
Each a silent scream,
Cutting me down to bare bones--
Slashing my mind...
Black thoughts bleeding through,
Drying into smoldering gunpowder burns
From explosive pain with no trigger.

Embedded glass now glistens in my heart
And in my dark, dark eyes,
Freezing me until
I am so cold,
Alone among friends...
The last remnant of my tattered mind
Trying, trying
To protect you from this poison...

Author's Note: Was in a dark, depressive mood the past couple of days on and off. This is what resulted... Please R&R. A note to those of you who know me... you know I get into these moods... it has nothing to do with any of you... and it will pass...
