I lurk in the shadows

That block out the sun

Long for the hours

When daylight is done

Dwell in the darkness

Tis where I’m content

Hidden, unnoticed

Is how my life’s spent

I am one with the creatures

Who stir in the night

Awaiting the sunset

To silence the light

He scattered my thoughts

Paled the vivid colors, blocked,

Then frightened away my dreams

 

He was darkness, the ebony night;

Chasing shadows round my head,

His visions, quite obscene

 

Like a nightmare, far too real;

My slumber, shackled,

Chained, within my silent scream

 

He held the key, I’m no longer free

From the darkness of my memory

Before I Slip Away

Do you hear me when I cry
Feel the teardrops as they fall
Can you hear my trembling sigh
When I feel so very small

Do you see the pain inside
Can you calm the fear
Do you see what I can’t hide
Please, make the darkness disappear

Will you hold me in your arms
Comfort me at night
Will you quiet all my qualms
And chase away the fright

Hear me, see me, hold me close
Don’t let me go astray
Just be my painless antidote
Before I slip away
