This poem is based on a song by Within Temptation, which, sadly, I don't own. I didn't use any lyrics, but my poem shares the song's title.
Pale
A spirit wasted
A soul taken this night
Has no one the courage
To stay strong, to fight
For what they believe
And as the sun sets
So does all hope
The fiery light is a part of me
And it's gone now
Only darkness remains
I do not fear the silence
The deathly cold
The icy darkness
But as my nightmares unfold
I can't fight anymore
My pain is seen by no one
Only because no one cares
And though my life is gone
I still feel their stares
Yet I have to go on
I must keep fighting
Or I'll lose it all
Can't let myself breathe even
Because if I fall
No one will pick me up again
Cruel it may seem
It is I suppose
But I've no time for dreams
No time for my woes
None at all
And it may be unjust
And it may be unfair
But I'll do what I must
For no one else cares
About me
And so I will stay
And bitterly ponder
A symbol of disgrace
You stare at me and wonder
Why?
