PATTERNS
Each time I looked in the mirror
I saw
your face
haunting me, your words
echoing
all around me
I tried to erase
your memory by
pounding on the glass
But only the mirror
changed
It cracked - creating
a giant web
like the one
of deceit you
built all around
me
Spent and bleeding
I walked away
knowing that
it will never
change
