Living in Shadows
Inbetween I thrive
Among their scrawl of shades
I am broken glass
(They’ll not dirty their hands)
Static
Not in your Ivory World of Distortions
Not past the Obsidian Veil
Inbetween Silence and Truth
Hope and the Destruction
The odd swelling of hearts long ago shattered and counted
among the Lost
I’m not breathing
Can you see past the blood?
The lies…
Voices call
Tears fall
Search to be
But cannot see
This valley of Bled Dreams
Tainted through waves of panic
My fragile wings flutter
The Broken understand
Only the strange know
And this pain
Free me
And the wind whispers
But I am alone
Among phantasm
The Black Shade Living in Death’s plane where only a few reside
Sow into My Skin
Learn to breathe again
Welcome to My Shaded World of the Strange
