The Shadows

by xPerfect Chaosx   Nov 16, 2006


The shadows scream and writhe in the dark
They howl a melody
I sing along to
I am crushed,
My soul lay broken on the floor,
Where you left it,
The shadows inside of me are screaming
They want out,
To hurt you,
To revenge my soul,
That once kept them happy
The shadows were happy,
When my soul was happy,
When you weren't a part of my torment,
A part of the despair that I now feel
Now that you are with her,
The shadows seek to escape and
Find a new place to reside,
Leaving me cold and empty,
A shell with nothing,
A living person,
But I would be dead to the world,
Not really existing,
Not really there,
Not really living,
The way I used to
When you were not a part of my torment,
A part of the shadows rage,
The rage that fills my soul,
They used to dance in harmony,
Before you came into my life,
Before my soul lay in pieces on the floor,
Before You,
The pain and the hurt,
Are all my fault,
This is all my fault,
For loving you
Without knowing you,
And that makes the torment I feel even worse,
I try to pick up the pieces,
They are laying there on the floor,
I pick them up and try to put them back together
But they only fall apart again,
Back onto the
cold hard uncaring floor,
I pick up the pieces, but they are never going to be the same
Never.
The pain is You
It will never be whole,
Rejection make the shadows angry
And me sad,
I cry tears for you,
Silent tears,
That only those
Who know where to look,
Can see.
Not many people can,
See the tears that I cry for you,
I hide things well,
I am used to hiding my emotions,
They are useless,
They only cause pain,
You only cause pain,
Goodbye shadows I am no longer able to hold onto you,
Maybe this is the best thing,
I am no longer able
To stand the pain,
Without the shadows,
I will not feel the pain you cause me
Goodbye shadows,
Goodbye pain,
Goodbye you...
