Shards Of Glass

The sun sets on my heavy heart  
failing to shine light on its  
darkened embers.  
 
Thoughts like daggers impale my soul  
walking in the inbetween  
feelings flooding in but I still feel disconnected.  
 
Removed from life as it is  
I seek to reveal my soul  
through my writing.  
 
It seems to show a mirror broken  
glimmering shards reflecting  
so many shades of light and dark  
Making me wonder which is my true face?  
 
Twisted and demented  
light, shining bright  
clashing sides  
bind and choke  
I feel so raw and exposed.
