StrypZ of Tha Black Rose

So here Starts the #blackRossessions. I listen to her Music and make out what I felt the song was talking about. Now here is a disclaimer. What I write here is not always accurate with the song in question. It's merely Me just sharing what I got from the song.
 Here goes.


Recently, Keisha Tha Black Rose Dropped a single called Broken Mirror. This song talks about the struggle that a lot of us go through. Several Times, we find ourselves in situations that make us think less of ourselves. It talks about the false and broken image that several of us have become comfortable with because it seems easier to deal with. My favourite line from the song is the line where she sings
"Hey there Pain addiction, do you love the Monster that's deep within?"...
In this line, I felt she was talking about the anger that drives one to hurt themselves in so many ways. Because you have become comfortable with the situation, you end up causing yourself to hurt, yet from the same hurt comes hate for ones' self because clearly, no one likes anyone who hurts them.
as the song draws to a close, she the breaks into a poem which is just amazing. The way she is able to bring out the fairytale characters and twist their stories, showing to us that not all that glitters is gold. To me, she just told me that you never know what struggles others are going through. so before you wish for another person's situation, carefully understand it.

Keisha Tha BlackRose - Broken Mirror

In the Light of this. I wrote my own poem using the same title.

BROKEN MIRROR

Mirror, mirror on the wall
Build me up and watch me fall
Spend me, draw from the wells of my soul
There is nothing there, but it's your cal
lDrain me, bleed me dry
I've already started with this blade
My oh my, now there's blood on the floor
The darkness has engulfed me
Watch me set fire to my empty heart
I'll burn brighter than the flames of hell
Mirror, mirror made of glass
Your broken shards in my hands
Are covered, stained bright red
What they did is caliginous
I'm choking on blood, down on my knees
I'm nothing but broken bones and cut-up skin so
Mirror, mirror, how long until I finally fall?
"Not long my dear, so give it your all"
My reflection stares back from the broken mirror
Distorted pieces staring from shards of broken mirror
Wondering where these false images come from
I’ve lost myself deeply inside this broken mirror
Disillusioned with myself, finally seeing the truth
That hides within shattered images of broken mirror
One thousand eyes blink, with lies behind each one
Cast at me from the remnants of the broken mirror
Crooked smiles endlessly reflecting back in sadness
Captured is the deep despair by this broken mirror
Scattered about the floor inside each silver shard
My self has been captured into this broken mirror
