The Breaking

I see their face in the mirror suit, a hazy image in a sea of noise

Formations fixed and dimming, shapes slowly shifting

Into a metal model display

Insight is failing, she's lost control

As a new dawn fades, she breaks apart

Minutes like decades, this day seems without an end

Even trees in winter never looked so sad

A sparkling in the window pane, a hidden glimmer of the timid pain

Reflections blurred by fumes

Non-stop passers-by come and go from yesterday

They're all awake with unsounded words

Reposed in faux of life's splendour

Some bright translation errors reset the time and scene

I'm versed enough to know they always sleep
