The Shadow....


My emotions are bludgeoned to the point beyond recognition…
My heart a sheer memory of what it used to be…..

Everything was just a mere shadow of the life it once possessed….

The rhythms within my soul in which my very being danced to, no longer emitted music…
But dead silence filled the air space….

Everything was just a mere shadow of the life it once possessed….

The mountains lost its colour and faded to black….
As the light was ripped away from the sky….

Everything was just a mere shadow of the life it once possessed….

The joy is forced….
The laughter... but a few…
Too little to remember….
Too far are gone the days to recall what was said in a manner of jest and joke…

Everything was just a mere shadow of the life it once possessed….

The castles that were built are now piles of rubble that littered the floor….
Casting a blanket of smoke.... dust.... ash... across my mind…

Everything was just a mere shadow of the life it once possessed….

The life that throbbed within…
The endless possibilities that lived within these few cells….
The miracle in itself…
The hope that it gave to others….

Everything was just a mere shadow of the life it once possessed….

Just Remember hun, that all Shadows need light to be cast!

Yes our past is a shadow, one which cannot be changed and sometimes it remains as a dark image in our heads.

You have a beautiful heart, it can be seen with respect to your family and friends, even after taking a beating.

Your a sweetie, dont let ppl from your past, situations from your past hold you down. Shine that light!
