Shadows in the Rain

Walking through the shadows, lost in my mind’s maze

Searching for a reason, through the longest of days

Scammed and broken, I’m feeling hollow inside

Carrying burdens, no one to confide

Wondering if this pain will ever fade away

Or if I’m destined to wander, lost in shades of gray

There’s a voice in my head, echoing doubt

Questioning my worth, what life is about

Wish I could tell her, I care, I feel

But fear keeps me silent, my wounds are real

Would they miss me if I just let go?

Would I leave a mark or disappear in the snow?

Dark clouds hanging, heavy in my head

Fighting these demons, wishing I were dead

Is there a dawn beyond this night?

A chance to find some kind of light?

Fear of rejection, fear of the fall

Haunts my mind, consumes it all

So I walk this Earth, a shadow in the rain

Hoping someday, to find relief from pain

Will I be missed, remembered, or just a ghost?

Searching for hope, I need the most
