Beyond the shadows and above the sky,
alone in the dark find where true love lies.
I see your things and have a thought
look through the pain from which love wrought.
I feel you there surrounding me,
the deceit and sadness intruding me.
To be held in your arms once more,
I will gladly knock on hell's door.
What confusion has this caused.
When your here I cant find you,
When you aren't there you are.
Always there in my mind, in my heart.
When will this pain end,
when will love begin?
I know the answer now,
It lies beyond the shadow of doubt.

Thank You for Your entry: Beyond the Shadows
For some reason...I got to line three...

I get very sensitive to energy exuded through
words written...
Oh My~~
I caught a few spelling hiccups but it does not take from the emotions...also images You have brought to Light which grabs and tugs hard at the heartstrings
*the deciet and sadness intruding me.
...looks like deciet...deceit...
and
*WHen your here I cant find you,
...When...
but again it does not take away from Your verse
These lines tugged at the heartstrings:
I feel you there surrounding me,
the deciet and sadness intruding me.
To be held in your arms once more,
I will gladly knock on hell's door.
Love this piece You have penned inspired
