Being of the Shadows
My shadow is my only friend
So I have become a being of the shadows
A creature of the dark
Nocturnal altogether
I have made my home in hell
Gehanna has become my resting place
The halo is burned
The wings are charred
No light of heaven shines this far
I am not the angel I used to be
No light of hope shines from me
Cast out of heavens light
And armed with Hell’s might
This is the fate of those cast out
Those forgotten
Those that must wonder through life alone
Darkness is our home
You can’t blame the exiled
For becoming the reviled
There is no other fate
The loneliness breeds only hate
The isolation gives birth to envy
Seeing others so happily in the light
You think to yourself “why not me?”
So your inner demons draw their might
And let you know
That you don’t belong in the light
