Shadow
Shadow
I was told
That’s where the evil lurks
A place where demons hide
Waiting for you to lose footing
And fall into the void of nothingness
I was told
When the shadows creeps behind you
Don’t look back as it will swallow you
With pieces of yourself
It will destroy you
I was told
To seek for lights
As it will guide me through each of my steps
Never letting me fall
Nor trip
On my way up there
From then on I was on a quest
To find the lights
For it to shine on me
As I march forward on this journey called life
When I finally see it
I realized
The lights are the evil in disguise
Masked as your sweetest dreams
Filled with poison of temptations
Yet there I stand upon it
Basking in the warmth of lies
Inching closer bit by bit
It pulled me somewhere up high
Where the lights shine the brightest
In the sky
Suddenly it feels too much
It blinded me with desires
I can no longer see
The shadows behind me
Darker than ever
Trying to keep me grounded
Because it knows of what’s to come
The comfortable lights
Turned harsh
Burning holes into my soul
Until I cannot hold onto it anymore
With burned fingertips I fall
Like glass I broke
If I had known I was told wrongly
I would have taken a look behind me
The warnings of my darkened shadow
Hinting me to be careful
Maybe I will still be whole
Not with pieces of me missing
