I am

Fighting my inner fears

Been living in the trenches.

Looking at my life with different lenses.

Swept away the emotions.

Lost all focus.

Can’t scream or shout.

The cards have been dealt.

No there not in my hand.

I guess god or whoever that holds the cards had a different plan.

Figured i was gifted.

Illusion of my life lifted.

Emptiness inside me

Every piece of me ripped away.

No love at play.

I walked through this valley and have been living in the shadow.

I have pass every test.

Only to succumb to the fact that i am forgotten.

I invoke the true meaning of the sun and the moon.

I am as bright as a light but as dark as my shadow.

I am

And that’s is all i can account for.

I am
