Shadows

I GLANCE INTO MY PAST LIFE OF PAIN,
              THE FRAGILE TINKLE BRITTLE SPRINKLE LIFE 
               OF CLOUDED RAIN.

                 MAINTAIN A CONSTANT FLOW BELOW MY LOWER
                LIFES DEPPRESSION,
                 THE NESSESARY VOMIT BY THE SIGHT OF MY 
                 REFLECTION.

                 PROTECTION FROM MY SHADOW
               FOR IT REMINDS ME OF MY HATE,
                 INTICIPATE MY DEATH BY THE SIGHT 
                 OF SUDDEN FATE.

                  TO LATE TO BRING UP HOPE CAUSE HOPE
                  HAS DROWNDED IN MY PAST,
                  TO LIE AND COPE WITH THE PAIN OF FEAR I FELT
                   I'VE LOST AT LAST.
