Shadow Cast

by Cantchangeme   Jan 25, 2025


Your spectre keeps me sleepless
Smiling wide into the darkness
As my sheets turn from white to red
This torture is needless
My faith measured by its starkness
I hold happiness inside my head

Your dark heart no longer beating
Silence reigns over you forever
But I hear it’s drum when I close my eyes
Relief from this pain is fleeting
These chains I look to sever
Strengthened by all the years of lies

Before there was a ghost
There was a shadow alone
On which light cast judgement
It’s sons cast their stone
In doing so became the dark
Through to the bone
Were no longer of light
But of shadows clone
