Hiding between the shadows

Between the shadows,
a dark silhouette,
Whispers in my ears
things I long to forget.

The tears that used to stain my face,
now flow within,
drowning my still bleeding heart.
Tempting me to follow,
leaving behind
my soaking soul.

Overwhelmed by lethal sorrow,
I listen to the treacherous words
planted in my naive heart
as I do as I'm asked.

Red colored tears,
flow out of my flesh.
As my screams grow weak
so do my fears.

Laying shattered
in a pool of blood,
I close my eyes.
As I choke in the darkness,
a wave of despair washes over me.
Life is full of lies
and I realize I was wrong,
because so is death.

Now I'm hiding between the shadows
were I belong,
like I knew,
all along...
