Eyes like mirrors like truths
I saw your demons in the fissures
Their chains rattling a soundless roar
Masked by plastic smiles and razor words
A cage of flesh and bone
Growing old and feeble with time
As the demons ****** you dry
I saw the claws under your skin
Itching to consume you,
Itching to destroy

Until one day your pool of strength depleted
The shackles shattered
Smiles, now frozen memories
Words, forever silent echoes
Flesh and bone obliterated
As the bullet hit true
