The shadows
The darkness hovered over my bed
Couldn't see couldn’t hear couldn’t feel
I lay motionless in my covers
Heat smothered me just like death
I could see him
Standing in the corner of my room
I was wondering why he wouldn’t take me
Oh I loved the thought of him dearly
He ignored me so
Oh how I wish he would take me
Oh the adventure
The endless night
It wouldn’t be filled with havoc
I would be alone
Oh the peace the lovely lovely peace
It would be my depths of sorrow mine all mine
Of course he would be there
If only he would notice me
Am I too desperate
Is this too much to ask for
He is bringing me sorrow
Yet I love the sorrow
But I wish I was smothered in it
Blood
The blood was trickling down my face
I wish I had beauty
Life calls for it
I love death though
Maybe I don’t need beauty
Beauty is pain
Oh how much I love pain
Out I go
An adventure in the rain
Rain, Rain is beauty
Stranded wet and cold
I must keep going
Why is he leaving
He is speeding up
I don’t want him to see me
I want him to acknowledge me
He slips away
There
I found him
Deep
in the
Shadows
