Shedding the Light
I shed the light
And walk away
But I turn back
And see her standing there
She is frowning
And wondering why
Why I shed the light
And turned away
why I let myself go
Why I forgot who I was
Why I gave up on everything I stood for
Everything I stand for
Everything I fought against
Why I helped so many others
But I couldn't help myself
Not once did she ever think
that, I, myself, could not be help
So, I stood there and let the darkness
Overwhelm my soul
Corse threw my veins
Tear my heart into two
Stand there in shame
Because I let everything go
I stood there and watched her tears
Glistening and sad
Perfect and so complex
Her wings made of gold
Her Heart pure; as her soul
Then I turned and walked into the darkness
It cast a shadow upon her face
And for a moment
Only a moment
I thought of turning back
But the darkness had overwhelmed me
And I was lost
No one could pull me out
No one noticed me go
Except her
And her golden wings of hope
