Boy Of Shadows
By Katie Dresel
I am a boy of shadows
I cannot see anything at all
The piece of me
That has hidden in my heart
Is lost to the darkness beyond the light
I have only coldness
My wings, which succored are lost
Get away, I am lost in the shadows
My heart still remains in this emptiness
Buried and forgotten
In a place of sorrow
You found me prisoner to the dark
Taking my hand you lead me away
And you showed me a road that led to a city
Left me at the gates inside the light
Am I to discover something
Am I to meet someone
Am I too be hurt by someone
I pray to the moon
And realize the things I was praying for were in vain
Your body is scorched in my memory
I don't want to be your friend
You'll be the death of me
If I could see without eyes
Would you still be here
Shall I try walking
I feel I missed out on something
I cannot grasp the threat
Darkness dispelled
Is surely an answer
Your body is scorched in my memory
I love you
But loving you will kill me
Am I to discover something
Am I to meet someone
Am I too be hurt by someone
