"Shadow"

Consumed and assimilated,
Into the shadow of hatred.
Filled with roses colored red.
I am just filled with dread.
Of what I'm facing ahead.

Is it love or hate or both?

We Walk Our Separate Paths

I'll never walk in your footsteps.
                         because you walked

that path and it was personal to you.

I may shadow you, as I take wonderment
          in the delicate breath of each moment

you trod upon the soil.

Showing that for some, we will never tread
               upon others imprints.

But we will not look above, but always
                     below to see that some paths
are worth following,
      stepping side by side to others life.

Make a path anew, follow the footsteps
                of others you look down too.

But every path is unique, no path trodden
                   is ever the same in life.

Shadows

I lag behind
My 'friends',
I noticed that I've become
Invisible. Unnoticed.

A husk of who I was.
A shadow.

A void in the night.
Outshone by the light.
I feel so empty,
Like a thought of the past.

I'm in another dimension,
A wall of words separate us.

Or rather,
A chasm of words unsaid.
Lost words they are,
Just like me:

A shadow.
A shadow of the past.

One of my buddies/peers told the CCA group at whole that she felt 'like a shadow' during ourhat of fears time. I thereby dedicate this poem to her.

a fool processing embarrassment

these words
as
powerful as an enemy
as loving as
no woman
no woman
no woman
no woman
no explanation
no arms
no legs
no lips
no hands
no one
now just
one beer and a hit
is all i need
to forget about my
walls
to forget about my
blundering , blubbering past self
weak and desperate for
affection/attention
embarrassment shadow

The Unknown

I never saw your face once,
But you remind me, you're hideous.
I never listened your voice once,
But I know, you speak less.
I never saw your smile,
I convinced myself,
yes ! he is emotionless.
I took my pen
Closed my eyes
I dreamed silently
My fingers moved with your rhythm
My ears perceived a distinct voice
Beholding that fascinating smile on a lean face
An unknown man with a magical aura
I opened my eyes
I giggled,
I almost slipped into my fantasies
It's your shadow imprinted in my heart
Though you are unlikable...

Lights Of The Wrong Love

She is the light with undefeated brightness
Where it’s warm and contains happiness
But I rather stay in the darkness
For it’s misguide to the path that wasn’t chosen

Tempting and I never want to avoid
The lights calling my name wants me to stay below it
But I rather be here shove my ears and close it
In the cold darkness let my blood be frozen

So I buried myself in the shadow
Where it’s just cold and hollow
Because if I follow
It will only ends with disappointment

I hoped you guys found the right one

Ghost

Hey.
If you're reading this,
Which you shouldn't be,
I just wanted to say,
You don't need me.

You don't need me.
I don't need to be here.
I'll just drag you down,
With my flaws and I-
I'll cause you to drown.

In loneliness.
With me.
I don't want you to suffer.
I don't want to suffer.
With you.

Is it normal to feel like
Someone else's shadow?
Is it normal to feel like a ghost
An ethereal spirit, disconnected.
Lost.

I'm lost.
At a loss of words,
lost in this game called life.
And I don't even know why
I'm pulling out this knife.

To hurt myself.
Ghosts can't bleed, can they?
Ghosts don't feel, do they?
Ghosts shouldn't matter, should they?
I'm not making sense, am I?

A continuation of the previous poem, I'm not sure if I like this. It turned out different then expected. Oh well.

Ghosting

Hey.
If you're reading this,
Which you shouldn't be,
I just wanted to say,
You don't need me.

I really want to write more but I should try limiting the words and see where that brings me ahhhhhh I will write another poem that continues this but this will be set aside as the paragraph that should be said for the trials of the Voice Acting in the project that I will be opening in October.

Night's Scent

When darkness is crawling in,
My mind travels back in time
In night's silence,
I listen to your voice
My shadow transforms to you
In night's scent,
I enjoy your flavor
Flowers bloomed at night,
it's for us...
Nothing is delicious as your gaze on me
Your smile is drawing me like a spell
I blushed in your sweetness
These beautiful nights are for me
I sleep calmly in your dreams
Did Dawn forget to find us ?.
