asking why

It's hidden beneath layers of time and experience
Behind humiliation and hurt
Seen in the mirror of the past
Tears rolling down at last...
Seeing the hurt and the pain
Through the rivers of shame
Asking why it had to end this way
But having nothing left to say.
Hoping for the future
Not that it matters
The hate is mutual
The glass shattered.
The clouds of fortune passed by
Leaving light where darkness once was
And disappointment heard by a mere sigh.
At night, looking at the stars
Seeing ghosts travel to the heavens
And demons down to hell.
Shocking to see death at the doorstep
Wondering what to do next,
Every second counting down
Increasing anticipation
Welcoming death in...
But running out the next moment.
Leaves gloating in the air,
Getting caught in the crossfire
Between good and evil.
Thinking of the past
And deciding at last
To go your own way...
