Staring at the broken image in the looking glass,
I saw shards of it break and scatter.
Some pierce deep into my hearts chambers,
And bleeds from it the thick red blood I had held back for years.
I realize that I am in someone else’s land
I look for faces I can understand,
I seek assurance, seek for my mother’s touch.
In my dreams; I walk in darkness, I shiver in unknown fear
And then my eyes open to the strange world I am confined in!
I push the doors; I yank them and hit them,
But they wouldn’t budge, they would not give way
I turn around to see faces jeer
Didn’t they use to smile at me like my peer?
Then I see those hidden fangs from which poison drips.
Where are those faces I knew? Where are those people I loved?
Where are they who wiped my tears?
Where are they who placed a crown on my head?
Don’t you see they rip me? They chew me and spit me on the ground
Don’t you see that I walk around orphaned on the road?
Don’t you understand how this chokes me?
I scratch at the walls, I pound at the doors
I turn around and find them hiss;
My head throbs, my hands twitch
I see her jeer, her fangs gleam
And before I knew I drew across the marble floor
Took her by the neck and smashed her to the ground.
