Sorry this one is short thanks for everyone who is reading. no matter how little I just hope you enjoy.

When I look in the mirror all I see
Is a husk of what I used to be
What was ignorance
Is now arrogance
What was innocence
Is now my recompense
My conscience used to lead me
But lately it seems like it can't find me
As I walk away from what I fought to make
It doesn't change my fate
I still fight
For what I think is right
But I do lose to my carnal nature
And it reflects on my stature
Why do we keep on fighting
When the enemy seems so unrelenting
Then I remember that when all is gone we hope
Whenever you feel broke
You will begin to realize
What were real lies
