He waits in a living nightmare
Like most dreams, it fades when he wakes
But no one will wake him up
His silent pleadings are forgotten
His battle is lost in a greater one
His friends do not fight for him
Though they say they support him
His fight is not theirs
And other concerns tale priority
His fate matters little
That is what he thinks
Trapped in the shadows
He is only a passing thought
As the world goes on without him
He falls unendingly
Even the very earth does not care
It refuses to support him
Only the void and dark remain
Using him, drinking his tears
They fall into the void
For no one will ever dry them
No one will care that tears fall
No one sees that the darkness they fight
Is dragging his down as well
And as his friends triumph
As the world shines in victory
His world grows ever darker
For he is always the loser
Alone in his shadowy world
