Awww it's now 1:30 in the morning and the pain has finally subsided--I thought before I went to bed I would share my writing---yes I'm a poet and I'm gonna show it lol--Though far from being good--I'm trying to be humble here people haha--But seriously what I write is raw and comes from first hand experience...the best kind... Here it is in all it's unfounded glory-- "Weary eyes watching the world pass me by--So tired of the light burning away my life--And in the dark I can weep silently--Just a Solitary figure terrified to sleep--And in my dreams the shadows reign--Like a cruel King teaching me shame--He hands me a crown and scepter and hisses--You can rule if only you have learned your lesson--But I'm asleep a voice insists--You can fight it,(yelling)Just resist!!--And an in instant I scream give me my reprieve--I've fought all my life and all those I love leave like shadows in the keep--And as slitted eyes slowly awake--My body shakes in sobbing relief---Another day--a short respite--And with trembling hands I watch the Shadowmonsters creep afraid of the light---Just Like I do---Yes the truth I hide in shadows--Oh God, I can no longer be seen--My secret wish made true I'm invisible--And in the eyes of truth I pray you forgive me--I'm but human frailty and fallible--AND NOW I"M GONE--Only faint whispers remain--Where I once belonged--A CHILD AGAIN IN INNOCENCE NEVER WRONGED AND FOREVER FREE
