Violet Flowers

Twisted Reality

I wake and something in the mirror

Catches me by surprise

Something strange, I haven't seen before

And I can't believe my eyes

I see an image of a room

That looks a lot like mine

But it's changed, like from a different place and time

The pictures all have fallen

And are scattered on the floor

The windows all are shattered

And the posters all are torn 

The walls are dripping a deep crimson

And even though it's morning

It's black as night outside

In the room the dark is piercing

Then I see myself

But not myself at all

I wear a mask and have horns upon my head

And I jump as the mask falls

Two glowing red eyes and an evil smile  

Stare through the mirror back at me

And I realize that this image

Is my twisted reality
