With all things lost

With a tear, faces are reflected.

In a smile I can’t seem to show,

my world falls to despair.

With a word, I am speechless.

In a laugh I once let out,

all dreams are shattered.

With a look, I hate who I am.

In the mirror is a broken soul,

crying to just escape my fate.

With a touch, I am so cold.

In a feeling I never knew before,

all that I see is lost in my eyes.

With a lie, love was spoken.

In my eyes is only sorrow,

felt from a meaningless life.

With a whisper, words broke me.

In lips so beautiful I fell away,

only to taste the pain I gave.

With a heart, I am heartless without you.

In my soul there was once something pure,

I just can’t remember when anymore.

With a lie, death was created.

In my grave where I wait,

all things mean nothing to me now.
