The darkness abides

the light learns to heal,

but besides this pain

I can not feel.

Please forget me

move on through your life,

knowing me

is an endless strife.

A shadow that follows

sticks close to your side,

but it does not mimic

it does not hide.

A black substance

an endless stream,

of tears and hate

a broken seam.

The god that sowed us

that grew our Earth,

did not intend

pain after birth.

We cause ourselves

endless grief,

by tredding the waters

of darknesses reef.

So embrace your shadow

hold it's hand,

one day you'll reach

the promised land.
