Shadows:
In the darkness…
Blended in like a shadow,
Searching for something I once had,
Following the scent…
I’m led to someone I could never resent
With them lies a warm glow,
Something I gave them…
But this they would never know.
They have my heart,
Unawaringly so…
I need it back but take it back I wont.
So, with them it shall remain,
And at least I wont feel any pain…
I wont feel anything,
Nothing at all…
But now I can fade into the shadows on the wall,
As an empty heartless…
In the dark I shall live…
With no pain, no sorrows,
Just shadows.

This poem was inspired by my intrest in love, it was also inspired by the Kingdom Hearts game. In the game there are heartless and the image of them inspired me.
