Dove, or Snake?

A mundane soul, lost to sorrow

It never wants to see tomorrow

Hoping without hope, and dreaming only nightmares

For banality has stolen all of my cares

Though who alive could truly care

About a soul that's barely there?

I see hate when the mirror looks back

Enraged by life, and ready to crack

I've brought this ruin upon myself

I saw it coming and did not turn away

In death, perhaps I will be at peace

Losing the sorrow, that for now must stay

Death is so alluring, so why am I here?

Rage and misery have made me strong

Depression fuels the hate, and hate kills any fear

So darkness rules my life, good or evil, right or wrong

Am I still a human being? I'm no longer sure

I think I've malfunctioned and cannot be cured

My mind has warped, ideals twisted out of shape

Am I tainted with evil? Am I good? Dove, or snake?
