Cast No Shadow

I cast no shadow upon your door, 
for that is not me in the moonlight knocking,
and no waves of light crash upon your shore, 
for that is not me docking.

no, look again through disheveled blinds 
and see who stands there smiling,
and beware of locks unengaged 
and of strangers so beguiling,

for the creak of floorboards singing, 
may just mean that I am leaving,

leaning against the wall

I see the shadow staring at me from down the hall
It's waiting for me to fail,
waiting for me to fall

It disappears and vanishes into the air
but it's always around feeding on my fear

It appears again leaning against the wall
It keeps looking at my way making my skin crawl

I look at it trying to figure out why it follows me
I look into it's hollow face and all I see is me

Burying the planet

Dissonance, envy, wrath
we humans are consuming each other's soul
the soul of the very planet
that keeps us afloat
I am the past
bleak is the present
from future come the shadows
to gulp our serenity
burying us alive
beneath our so-called homes

Darkness

The world is dark
With shadows
From hidden light

The light we search for
The light we all crave
All of us.
Everyone.
But me.

This light you wish for
How are we to know

You
So near,
Only wishing
You were here.

What is there
To fear?
If you’re the only one
Here.

I hide in the
Shadows ,

Dark tide rising

Look to the shadows,
Here they come.
See how they rejoice.
Their mirthless,mocking laughter,
Pounding in my ears.
The smell of their rotten decaying flesh,
Assaulting my senses.

Again and again they come.
A black tide of relentless hate.
Dark pupils glistening,
Voices shrieking in anticipation.
