Poetry

A painful shadow

written by: Tearful Angel

I see it,

Flashes in the night and shadows in glare

They leave quicker then they appear.

Like a warm taste of death and fear these shadows keep coming near

I don't know if I believe in a realm of life that is far from here

Or if these shadows are a mere sign of my unconscious blur

I feel a shiver as these shadows stir around my world without cheer

Then remember him so clear,

His warmth and summer cheer,

My brother, my cousin, my light on this earth

His sudden departed as he checked out of life

When the current of death sweeps in and takes

Things away

So maybe those shadows are my fears and the flash are my tears

That comes to me, when the cold shivers of gold come by to remind me that you're no more here
