PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Stepping down the aisle ways

In the glimmer of the lights

The shadows dance around me

As they fade into the night



The slow death is calling me

From all those years ago

Soft whispers in my dreams

From the lips of my own ghost



Fighting off the poison

That my mind's been taking in

I ponder all my choices

That have led me here again



I can taste the sorrow

As it flows throughout my veins

And I can face tomorrow

If I can make it through this pain



I can see her smiling

As the lights begin to fade

I sense a shortness in my breath

As my heart begins to race



All the demons in my soul

And all the secrets that I keep

Remain reflections of my heart

And the love that it so needs



All the words I never said

And too many that I have

Were just for me to save myself

From the shadows of my past



Back down these aisles again

That remind me of my fate

I can hear the storm outside

And the words it has to say



Though the roads we walk are many

The paths are just too few

And so the rain dances down

As my soul becomes renewed
