Neverwas

I Walked in shadow
Lost and alone
Demons dogging every step
Intoxicated with sorrow
Taking over  
becoming she
IS she
In the shadow friends come
Blind to my demon
Sightless to being


Becoming invisable 
wailing at friends , See me !! 
But still nothing
recognition gone
Light snuffed out 
No flicker of hope ..


Refused to see
Or be seen
I Forgot the girl
the woman
My denial the daughter
And sister
Hated to be she


Drowning in misery
Shadowed in cloaks of sorrow
Hiding in the halls of misery
Suffering the demon
Witnessing hell
Evolving into Purah
Sorrow’s own nobility


An old man 
relic of better times
See’s the demon !!!
Tempt’s the demon 
purifing light
burning and fighting
The princess is dethroned
Caste into the pit of hell
Seeking and searching 
The next victim
Sadly she will find


I am aware blooming
A glimmer of a smile
A spark of iris
my Hope life
Sorrow a shadow forever
But forgotten
So is as neverwas
