His Jaded Past

He stares at himself in the mirror, thoughts flow in his mind. .
He stares at his soulless, empty eyes. The worth of life stripped from them by you.
Eyes that once sparkled showed so much love whenever they saw you. A soul that sang and longed for you every time you were away. .
His eyes are now filled with pain and rejection. Everything is fading away. This is proof that his past is jaded. .
He stayed by your side, loved you for everything he was worth. Yet he received in return bruises. . Bruises of the heart.
Though your paths have now separated and lives lived apart. The aftermath of your brutality, so called love still creates a cold, fearful shiver in him. .
