Dark shadows threaten to overtake And the sun fades away The tears are flowing freely now Not wanting tomorrow to be another day Thoughts are jumbled topsy turvy So scared of the loneliness that I feel Nowhere to turn, nowhere I belong Not sure anymore what is real I can't find a hand to hold on to That doesn't hurt in return Can't feel the emotions Can't stop the fires that burn The flesh has been seared And the soul is full of holes There is nothing left inside And the heart has grown to old In a fast paced life That I don't know how to live I just can't keep going There is nothing left to give Something is calling to me From somewhere faraway But I can't quite make out the words And the music went astray I need to hear the music again Why isn't it there anymore I want the silence to disappear I want things as they were before I want to find a place for me in this world But there doesn't seem to be one I can't live with shadows anymore I need to find the sun

About this poem:
Wow when I read this one now and remember back to where I was, what a difference. I believe that everything happens for a reason, I don't know the reasons for that period of my life, but they helped make me the person I am today so no regrets.
