The Looking Glass Poem by neo riddick

The Looking Glass

Rating: 5.0


Jealousy and hate consumes your soul
Put a foot wrong and lose your control
Your digging and digging till you make a hole
So fake everyday you play out a role

And your steam with anger at your vile heart
Your nails they rip up everything and tear it apart
Bringing it to an premature ending then running a fresh start
You’re putting poison into each dart

Depression and mania got your mind
Close your eyes to look for what you cannot find
Into yourself you painfully pined
Carelessly leaving it all behind

That is what you say about me
Delighted you take the time to judge
This is reality and petty words cannot penetrate me
No more time to rhyme
These words will flow like raging rivers
No tears permitted.
I prefer to see you quiver

Hold on tight
This Reality check is about to take flight
Preaching brutal words of honesty
That is what I am here to do
Not holding back I am seeing it through
No more rhyming. You have been exposed.
Sit back and listen till your ears decompose

Now it’s time to turn around
Hard as it may be the truth has been found.
In my hand is a mirror. Now you see the real you.
The fake, phony, manipulating being you are.

Sickened by your own being.
You put down others just to keep your own self esteem up.
Well you see you.. The sad little insecure bit.
A dim witted soulless twit.

Your self esteem in held together by threads of hate and disgust for yourself.
Pouring utter nonsense from a made up mouth.
Putting down others and stepping on their flaws.

Time has come my insecure one.
One hand holds a mirror.
The other carries the scissors.
The one that you used to stab me time after time.
Your death is a celebration.
Not at all a Crime
