A Dark Reflection

[MelissaJune]

Satanic finger tips glide across the glass
as I am entrapped within a mirror
watching in my delirium as you pass
silently awaiting for you to draw nearer

For you to look deep into darkened eyes
to dig my nails into your deceptive skin
pulling you inside, where the true you lies
to the evil you repress within

As transparent tears trickle down your face
a viscous scarlet blood drips off of mine
as your unfortunate existence will erase
when a body and reflection combine

Bound to me, by torturous chains
my imprisoning glass blood spattered
inaudible screams trapped within the remains
of the mirror that was unframed, the glass shattered.

Hi, MelissaJune, You have chosen an apt title for this dark and powerful poem. Your choice of words is marvelous and the picture you paint is dark and haunting. I feel like there are vampire teeth within inches of my sleeping neck! Great work!
