The Mocking Face

The engulfing darkness, The plague of agony, terror, odium A festering scar of angst, anguish, fury A scathing blade of menace, threat, misery The mocking face of self-oppression The plunging hope, The inducement of wails, cries, suffering An enforcement of fear, cruelty, reticence A silence of elation, liberty, thought The mocking face of self-suppression The dwindling faith, The death of emotion, purity, love A birth of qualm, hatred, abuse A cry of rejection, refusal, aversion The mocking face of self-treatment
