standing in the silence of my own shadow...

caught in the wind lost by time
too busy to notice my mind
on my sleeve my emotions worn
battered and bleeding ripped and torn
standing in the silence of my own shadow
the doors to my soul empty and hollow
the screams I scream go unheard
silenced cries plees and words
echoes of times resonate within
razors slicing my heart again
said before a thousand times
again and again within my rhymes
sometimes I think no one can hear
the voice that projects my fears
because with time this has to pass
how long can this possibly last
through my eyes I no longer see
the person I am supposed to be
and the thoughts I think in my mind
cast the shadows within my eyes
the mirrors shows me the ugly truth
the scars remains of what I've been through
the reflection casts a structured shell
a mask that lies all too well
but I can see past the lie
the grinning shadows in my eyes
the doors that open to my soul
devoid of who I use to know
through the wind my screams dissolve
dancing riddles I cannot solve
echoed cries only I can hear
stab and peirce within my ears
through my body the shadows creep
touching darkness inside of me
a cancer fog that kills within
infecting my body once again
the cancer fog infects my brain
slowly driving me insane
pushing me to the brink
to the edge of thoughts I don't want to think
I search to try to find the end
but words just spill again and again
like tears of blood i bleed inside
that do not dry up with time
the conclusion has to come this way...
