Love In The Shadows

Through my darkness and sorrow

I can see your smiling face

holding me aground

I can hear your voice whispering to

don't let go, hold on and be strong

today is not your day nor is tomorrow

your future is waiting full of happiness and joy

so weep for me no more

for I will always be beside you

Standing firmly as your shadow

to walk through all of time hand in hand with you.

Standing Firmly

as your shadow - nice line, wrong tense for stood (past tense). Great syntax, wonderful rhythm of the phrasing. The telling is clean and the description marvellous. Enjoyable read this ~A~
