water runs past cracked glass,
with droplets splintering after each intrusion.
one by one.
i come undone.
face warped with each illusion.
a reflection stares back at me,
i breathe with an unsteady heartbeat.
each time i take a breath,
i kill myself with my own deceit.
i come undone.
one by one.
laying in the blood of my deceit,
dripping down my arm as i self-complete.
i don’t know what is real or illusive.
maybe i’ll stay another night in bed,
my thoughts intrusive.
