Shadow

by Saul   Apr 8, 2009


The Darkness in my soul is always there
No concrete form invisible like air
But unlike the air i breathe to survive
It suffocates my soul in pain it thrives
The shadow I see when the light's about
Is the Darkness trying hard to get out
One day soon the shadow will have true form
And my body will be out of the norm
Instead of my shadow trying to be free
I will be the one trapped internally
My freed Shadow will be the one to grow
My once live body now merely Its shadow

    Hey Saul,

    Great poem I like the fact that it basically gives a different aspect or view every time you read it. It's like you notice something different every line. Very intruiging.. Already I've read it three times. Great work, I really enjoyed it.
