Silver of Lies
#EntryPoetryFoundation
The wall beneath the dreadful
Chamber is calling...
While standing in front of this,
Deadly and vocal silver,
It has a hold on me,
I maintain my usual glance,
I looked, and faced my reflections,
My fears and my glooms,
It showed me the truth,
Coated with lies,
Twisted my perception,
Made me despise,
Judged my appearance,
My flaws and my wounds,
Mocked my insecurities,
Amplified my pain,
Stealed my confidence,
Made me feel vain,
I felt sick and numbed,
Within,
Shaking off,
Deceptive influences,
Of candles,
And beguiling moon,
Who confronted my memories,
My past and my dooms,
Haunted me with regrets,
Reminded me of our sins,
Trapped me in the past,
Made me lose my wins!
