Image for the poem fallen

fallen

 
I'm a shadow  
of myself  
glowering at the sun  
for reflecting my image  
 
i want to fade into the dark  
where i can no longer be seen  
nor heard  
not a word  
spilled from my tainted lips  
that leave their mark  
upon your soul  
 
if i could but rise  
from the wraith ranks  
far above into the ether  
capture some magic  
that sparks  
instead of flickering & fading  
 
i would streak  
across the night sky  
light a path  
for you to follow  
 
but i stumble  
& fall away into the pain  
like a fallen star  
i flash & burn out
