Shadow of the Forgotten

Been in the storm, a year too long,

Lonely and cold the wind blows,

The rain drops reminding of the conjured memories

Tormenting the bruised soul –

This night of incessant writhing downpours hatred

Of the love that once betrayed the heart

Shattered and ripped, a new wound gaped,

The bleeding never stops

For the wound has been sculpted over again;

And it seems there’s no escape

From this defying misery and pain,

Stuck in a maze of sadness

Where serenity never reigns,

As fate stares straight to the condemned darkness

And nothing left to forfeit the pain.

Living in a world of dreams where nothing exists

Except the numbness that plagues my mind,

The words fell on deaf ears

And not a pulse beats the same,

Dying slowly, day by day within,

Poisonous tears drowning your sin,
Beholding pieces of shattered frames

Conjuring into a turmoil of maddening bind,

Convicted in a prison of your thoughts

I shudder in a cocoon of hurtful remains,

Resign myself from this pain forever more

For once let me live and free my half dead soul.
