Mirrored Projections

A torrent ricochets, an unnecessary retaliation against the undisclosed.

Believing shards to be held within your skull,

Yet they pierce others relentlessly.

Bonds broken by burdens borne,

Those kept together now distant fragments.

Their selflessness dejectedly turns to auto-infliction

Until a void remains; helpless

Broken glass; a reflection unrecognizable

Loneliness fills the gaps between shattered thoughts within,

A sonorous silence unwittingly seizing a life once sound.
