Gilded Cage

A Poem by Dragonflyz

October 2009

Truth built on lies and deceit
Words unspoken, depths unheard
Broken and deserted
Pedestal destroyed
Gilded cage no more

Perfection imagined
Reality dark, desolate
Abandoned and alone
Question answered
Destruction followed

My burden to bear
Heart and soul destroyed
Demon unleashed by my hand
Broken dreams
Darkness

Blindness
Deceit
Justice
Nothing
Done

I walk alone
