Sad poem it hits your heart right from the start then when it comes to the end you are just in aww becouse it has so much pain to it you feel for the person really emotional but you did a great job writing it sadness feel the readers joss you are good poet peace&love midnight sky

This poem is very beautiful Joss. I really liked the theme of the past, present and future. The past or youth can be difficult to overcome when you are alone. There is so much tone of sadness. The metaphors are beautiful and simple. The past has you living in darkness or sadness and that is something you learned to live with and it has grown to be your home. Now in the present the sadness has followed you. Though you tried to find the light or happiness darkness still consumes you. Now that you are here. You want to become happy again. The shadows still chase you but you are now better at fighting them off. This is a great and unique poem. :).

Nice poem friend, keep it up!
