Array ( [sid] => 104091 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Cast of Shadows [time] => 2005-08-21 17:03:30 [hometext] => I am bringing you a series of poems that reflect my life story. I posted this poem once, but it was deleted, so for those who missed the first installment of Hey people, this is my first edition to the new series I am coming out with. The series will be all about the negativity and darkness of my life (my life/'/s shadow) I wrote this before I started to have my worse problems a time when anger, hatred, loss and pain runned my life...... it seems to flow into what it is now. I know I probally wont be as good as the Bloody Roses series, but I am not here for perfection, just to say and get out my pain of my life... Im Brandon, and I hope you like the poem. [bodytext] => Cast of Shadow

Yea, as I walk through the valley of the shadows of death...
I will fear no evil; Therefore I am.

Darkness around me looms,
slowly everything it consumes.
Evil thoughts cloud my mind,
as hatred overwhelms mankind.

I walk down the steet, on the open run,
as they pass by, counting the shadows one by one
Still I wake to another day,
praying for the pain to go away.

GO AWAY........
please don/'/t stay
LEAVE ME BE
no longer do I wish to see
NO MORE HATE
why cant I excape
I WANT TO BE FREE
why cant I just be me

Never once asked of this,
Just another one on Lucifer/'/s list.
I carry the tormented load,
making my sanity to erode.

As I walk down the darkened road,
I realise for all my life there never was bliss.
Dont know if I can keep going,
God/'/s answers arent showing.

I just wish the pain to....

GO AWAY!

Suicidal thought, withot pitty,
all when I roam this empty city.
No one but myself.......
Lost to everyone else.
This is my hidden fury,
making life seen contradictory.

How I/'/ve felt,
no ones ever known.
My pain; the only thing shown.
no matter what, nothing has helped.
These are the shadows in which I roam

I can see that you know the scriptures so I hope you don't mind if I share one that I think is a good answer to this poem.

"My grace is sufficient for you for my power is made perfect in weakness" 2 corinthians 12:9b

This poem is great because it reveals that you atleats want an answer for why you are struggling. This is a partial answer. I hate to struggle to but unless we go through the fire we will never overcome our charecters.
