Shadow's Light

SHADOW'S LIGHT

Softly hold 
this morning sight,
As night returns 
her song,
Amongst elder 
spirits flight
Journeys far 
and long.
Silent words 
unfold the night
And pray 
they be not wrong.
Shadow burns 
its final light.
Its' endless 
twilight song.
Shadow haunts 
an empty heart.
Same emptiness 
beyond this sight.
Empty thoughts, 
doubts to part,
Clinging one less 
time in fright;
Grasping for more 
time to start..
Rage then anger, 
one last might.
Lost within 
a fearful heart,
Hidden within
Shadow's Light
