Uncharted Reflection

about challenges of looking back. I have done it all in rhyme :) thought I should try my best and put into words what depression feels like. tell me what u think anyway

 

 

 

 

 The flame flickers, as she watches it. And from the flame comes an aura of light. And in the light memories engulf her. Memories everyone has forgot but always remember.

 

The room that she's now in becomes cold. Haunting melodies she once played echo around her, becoming louder

and louder.

 

Where is your mind. You left behind. Is it a sign that it is nearly time. to carry on the daily grind. She sits back and

sighs. even though she has died so many times, and walked along the darkness of the line. yet she looks in the

mirror and cant see things clearer. she touches the mirror and is transported nearer.

 

" You don't understand"

 

she says at the man, whose standing in the middle of her plan. coveted by the lightness of the land.

 

" You don't realize, how many mistakes I have made. Even when the right path has been pointing my way. In a

daze I act like im crazed. smoking up that Rhino haze, getting blazed at every stage. Always looking back on

yesterday. And yes I am still ashamed. I used to wear a mask you see, and everyone around me thought I was

so pretty. And sometimes I would wonder, if they would even miss me."

 

The man carried on standing there. He looked like he didn't even care. He just looked into her eyes and said nothing

. But she had to get this out.

 

" I am worth nothing! if you knew who I was, you wouldn't be stuffing my heart, with passionate art. Look into

my eyes, and see my soul. all my true emotions I control. I don't even tell you half of the stuff I think! because

if I did, I would push you to the brink! I didn't know who I was, where or how! I just used to get drunk in town!

and what's worse is that a bit of me has died. I cant detect it, only in moments of shameful pride. But I carry on

and stride out into the world. thinking one day, ill be a better girl!"

 

For a moment of time, she detected feeling in his eyes. It may of been the cold, that

they moved inside. Through a locked door in the mind, they went through. closing

the door, not letting any demon be true. The room was decorated with a dimly blue

light, and in mirror, so they could look back at her spite.

 

" Why did we go through this door?"

 

" Because I wanted to show you more! See more of me and then you will decide if you

really want to be with me. or if you want to hide. I don't care I just hope your a prince

in disguise. you have cleared my sight but there are loads of things left behind"

 

And then came no light, from the candle at night. She thought of the fear and the

serpent could hear.

 

" where are you now??" she shouted to someone who was nowhere

to be found.

 

" I am not creating the darkness. It is your mind. your memories of things you have not

left behind. I can not cross here, you wont let me near. maybe I will have a beer.

Ill wait for you, in your tears" The man yelled as he struck reverse gear, into the car

that had been locked away for years.

 

" What have you done with him!!!" but no answer came. The serpent only slithered and

she made the same mistake again. and again intill she saw the final thread. When

they left her for dead. When she hardly fed. regrets going round in her head. The

future was hard to set in stone. The future that she would never own.

 

The serpent slithered and took her to an old home. Where the ghosts of days gone passed still roamed.

Nifty metaphors, and I even like the rhyming here (I'm normally a bit more jaded). I really liked this.
