In The Shadows
I lurk in the shadows,
Waiting,
Watching.
I see you cry,
I see you weep,
I can't imagine how much pain
I have caused you.
You thought I was dead,
You still think so,
But believe me when I say this,
I thought I was too.
I don't want to revile myself just yet,
For I believe you can finally have a life
In this new world I created for you.
I have no purpose now,
I'm useless to you.
I feel all I can do is to watch from afar
And keep you safe.
I fear you will never know that I still exist,
But I am content just with that,
Seeing your face everyday,
And that's enough for me.
I lurk in the shadows
And that is my home,
My life,
My future.
