A lost shadow

I am the waiting shadow,
standing here alone in my dreams,
passion I no longer know,
as I float down lonely streams.


No one knows my hearts desire,
the love I thought I knew,
passion I thought I didn't require,
in the shadows I hid from you.


I am a weakened soul,
with not much self esteem,
my heart, and desires out of control,
my life is a just fairytale, a dream.

 

When I close my eyes I see,
the pain, my heart, a broken love,
I long for death to rescue me,
lost, is everything I dreamed of.


I have a faded heart
my soul can be easily broken
my desires can be torn apart
my fears can be awoken.


I am floating down lonely streams
a weakened soul and a faded heart
I am a lost shadow of dreams
in my despair I must depart.

    a great poem with a strong message. the fourth stanza kinda confused me in its flow. the power behind this piece is very strong. and so many can relate. thank you for adding this piece to the reading list!

    my fears can be awoken. - i really loved this stanza...and the one following it! so full of emotions...sad ones, but it was written w/style and class. awesomeness!!! There was def a sense of loneliness tied in w/a broken and tattered heart.
