Left Behind

If only I had no demons to face,
I would face yours alongside you...

May thy heart live forever,
Thy beauty untouched by time...

I stand on the edge of a knife
Looking down the blade...

Throughout my life the tumult rages,
Struggle echoes through the school days...

Darkness is the ever end,
No Light is left in me to lend...

My life is become a hollowed shell,
Where my heart and hopes did at one point dwell...

What power I do have,
I would willingly cast aside...

Where is the light to hold my shadows deep at bay,
Alas I fear it has all but slipped away...

It has come to claim me,
That patron of the dark...

Time and time I've shared this pain,
Interlopers on an endless plain...

Roses are red,
Violets are blue...
