Dunno where this came from - just sort of showed up one day whilst I was reading some random Dark Link fic. I remembered it after reading another DL fic - which you can find as a recent addition to my C2 community - is a good story.

Echo
by achitka

Do you see me?
Here amongst the shadows,
I am made not born as you
Created of one man's hate
to destroy the light...ending your pain

Your light that taunts me, even as it beckons
Only to abandon me to my fate.

I am devastation of the light, twisted to kill.
To pull you further into shadows.
To demolish the brightness... and fulfill my purpose.

No matter where you are
You cannot escape me
Your light shines and helps me grow stronger
Whatever you become...I reap the sorrow

I am the pain
I am the suffering
I am the empty malignant echo
of all you hate within yourself

So I fill the void with your self-loathing,
Your doubts and the fears you hide.
With malice, here amongst the shadows
I wait; to bring your death within the light.

And end my pain
