A reign of denial
melting your soul
in incandescent fire
destroying your thoughts
by infinite Shadows.
~
Logic and purpose questioned
covered in a bandage of despair and regret
breathless and paralysed
falling into an abyss of Shadows.
~
Songs of sorrow shatter hopes
cementing its vile without warning
through shameless lament
sent from the Shadows.
~
Away they must go
alone I feel the need to be
stop crashing onto me
let them take me, these Shadows.
~
Tears down your cheeks
why are you not listening
will they help me
what if they take them?
these are Shadows.
~
If reaching your hand will vanish them
why am I reluctant?
You can’t transform me
these are powerful Shadows.
If I must trust, I could try
but you must pull me fast
from the Shadows.
~
It is safe, but why are you covering my eyes?
I promise, I will not look back.
your hand has vanquished,
the Shadows.
~
You have conquered,
me?
We have conquered,
the Shadows.

Of course! The world doesn’t rule me today
