Two steps back
I saw her face
The beauty; the fear
The sadness; the misery
From a distance
I saw her eyes
The beauty; the fear
The sadness; the misery
Across the way
I saw her smile
The beauty; the façade
The joy; the misery
From the window
I saw her move
The beauty; the grace
The pain; the misery
And from the shadows
I saw her soul
The beauty; the love
The fear; the misery
Through the mirror
I saw myself
Battered; torn
The pain; the misery
And to my left
I see my past
Vague; distorted
Painful; miserable
But to my right
I see ahead
The love; the woes
The challenge; the misery
Below me
I see his face
Satan; the devil
My demon; my lover
I look into
His eyes; licks of flames
The hell; the pain
The everlasting fear and misery
Devil, bastard
Fucked my mind
Filled my soul with the pain
The fear; the misery
I cast him aside
And fall to burning tears
A child; uncertain; alone
Forever unloved.
