Wish From Shadows

In shadows I have watched you
Mourning for my sudden demise
I cried whenever you did
But how can I spare you the lies

My pale form aches to be with you
Needing to feel comforting arms
A protection only you can give
Where I feel none of the alarms

In the night I long for your love
I want to show myself to you
To prove to you I am still here
I am alive which you never knew

But I cannot show myself
I fear that I will do you wrong
No matter how much it hurts me
From your life I have gone

My dark soul is a corrupt thing
I will not taint you with my life
I fear killing your innocence
For now I carry my own strife

But worry no dear mother
For I will do the best I can
To return into your mortal world
To be once more human
