my depth perception quickly changes
this light brightly blinding me
even god would cry out in anguish
at the pain you have caused
your mockery will never cease
it was you who i believed pulled me from the darkness
yet you smile so politely
as you push me back into abyss
this life I once pictured bright and vivid
has faded to near black and grey
as i burn the picture of you
out of my memory.
your bullet penetrated my heart
and instead of dying from the blood loss
it merely shattered me into a thousand pieces
and left me to be carried by the frost
