In the Graveyard of my Soul


I often visit myself

In the graveyard of my soul

Buried in the deep cold ground

My pure self is found

Trying to escape

Trapped behind the mirror of my past

I am now a sinner

I am cruel

I am dark

My innocent self

A distant memory

My innocent self buried deep within me

I know longer wish to see

My innocent pure self

Still haunts me

I try to escape

I try to walk away

Yet, I always see a reflection of me

Before the world broke my heart

Before my warm heart grew cold

Before my life experience

Shattered my pure innocence

I can never escape my pure reflection

I look in the mirror in the graveyard of my soul

My innocent pure self takes hold

She won’t let the reflection of her sinner self go

Even though she is buried in the graveyard of my soul

The mirror of my past won’t let go
