  I traded hands with a smile today
as the dense fog continued to cover my eyes;
I looked out of the glass shaped tears
that never seemed to end for me;
and I didn't like what I saw.

  and even though I use to dream
of my Angel holding my hand's
such a long time ago;
I waited and I waited for those
words to shovel forth;
lapsing once again as my sorrow
never seems to forget who I am;
I just kept waiting here for the
serenade to play in the background;
waiting for my soul to die away
one last time for me.

  as my grass staind burns left the snake
poisoned kiss that was ready to touch my lips;
I waited to evolve into a seduction so impure
that it left me wanting more of a lust wishing
eternal happiness for me to come true.

  I just kept staring at the mirror
waiting for something beautiful to come alive
but the loneliness was cruel;
so very cruel as psychotic thoughts
began to transform in an already dilusional mind;
I took those promises that were once given to me
and I threw them as far as I could
into the blood shaking skies that
just continued to stare that empty
smile back at me.

" just kept staring at the mirror waiting for something beautiful to come alive " The last stanza was abcolutly brilliant in all itself. It made this poem come alive for me.
