Shadows

It's so hard to see the light, through all these black shadows that cover me.

I can't break through,
this darkness is fighting back,
It shall over come me.

I feel the ground sinking in,
this dark world will devour me.

This way of life will be my demise, and tomorrow, all day I will sit and cry.

Wondering how one misguided choice has stained my life, and has taken away the solace in my soul.

This heart has become charred, and hollowed.
A sanctuary for sins.

Even if I pray, they seem to be in vain, because God has turned his back, and the light no longer shines on me.
