Shadows and Sun

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.
