I stood by in the darkness
Shying away from the Light
Scared to go out in the open
Alone by myself...
A beautiful girl came along
Retreating to the dark corner
In search of solitude
Away from all mockery
And invisible hands of society
We gave each other company
My voice gave her solace
And she quietly dispelled
The darkness all around
With every passing day
The world grew more beautiful
In the new found joy
We felt with each other
And then one day it happened
What they call a miracle
She held me tight
And said that I am hers
And hers alone forever
From the foundation of hope
Rose fast and high
A beautiful dream castle
Soaring through the skies
It was not long
Before the ill fated night
When the thunderbolt struck
When she said that I am not hers
And that I was just her shadow
Only to stand by her side forever
The castle came rattling down
Crashing through its foundation
The deafening sound echoed
Through the silent walls
And muted the silent scream
Of my broken concious self
I let go of her hand
And she kept walking
Into the light of freedom
In search of her love
While I retreated into the darkness
Where I now belong
The robes of black
Clothed me in full
And welcomed me back
Into its wide open arms
I blended with ease
Into the pitch dark night
For I am nothing
But just a lonely shadow.
