Its been so long since I wrote, felt it was time to wake up my Muse. There is a story behind this poem, a sad one at that.

I lie motionless,

Here in the dark,

Restless and weak,

My views twisted by your tricks,

My heart tainted by your lies,

Was it all just a joke,

A sick and pathetic game,

To prove something,

To gain anything.

I sit alone,

Drenched in blinding light,

Unable to see your true face,

You hide behind a cracked masquerade,

Keeping truth in the shadows,

Finally shattering my dream,

Reality crashing over me like a tide.
