I hide away from the shadows. They cloud my senses. I avoid them at my every grasp. Covering my fears like a mask Freeing Hiding Running Safety is just a cover-up. A mask per-say To hide the pain I endure every day. Sometimes I drift too far. To uncover The pain within I fall Down deeper than I ever want to go To the deep within Full of locked memories and broken dreams I arrive at the candy store of childhood horrors The word that is used to describe my pain “Salty” “Agro” Brief description That is nowhere near correct I mask my pain with anger and smiles Hoping to reconcile with the thing people call god What is god Is god a service A prayer Or just a figment of our imagination Is it some man floating in the sky opening the gates of heaven Saying walk right in No God is who we want it to be It is something to cherish and to hold In the darkest of times Then why do I not believe? Will it make things better? Saying Our god who art in heaven, please help Maybe so that I can breathe again

Dark Shadows
I hide away from the shadows. They cloud my senses. I avoid them at my every grasp. Covering my fears like a mask Freeing Hiding Running Safety is just a cover-up. A mask per-say To hide the pain I endure every day. Sometimes I drift too far. To uncover The pain within I fall Down deeper than I ever want to go To the deep within Full of locked memories and broken dreams I arrive at the candy store of childhood horrors The word that is used to describe my pain “Salty” “Agro” Brief description That is nowhere near correct I mask my pain with anger and smiles Hoping to reconcile with the thing people call god What is god Is god a service A prayer Or just a figment of our imagination Is it some man floating in the sky opening the gates of heaven Saying walk right in No God is who we want it to be It is something to cherish and to hold In the darkest of times Then why do I not believe?
