Shadows of the Mind
In the shadows of my mind
I wander,
avoiding the sunlight of
truth.
The cool shadows mellow
the heat,
caused by the presence of
you.
The shadows are consumed
by darkness
and your face is the
light to behold,
but it fades and fades and
fades
As reality attempts to
take hold.
So in the Shadows of my
mind I wander,
avoiding the sunlight,
quite lost.
I stumble blindly in the
darkness,
alone, paying the
ultimate cost.
