Dancing In The Shadows Poem by Katherine H. Belle

Dancing in the shadows.
My mind races through delicate thoughts
Trapped in my humble abode
Lost in the vast dark caverns of my mind

My hands grope at the thick air
Trying to find something familiar
Cold and wet, i sit here thinking
Hopeing to see the light beyond my dreams

I cry out to you
but you never answer
Blinded by lies and hatred
You run through your own bitter thoughts.

Tears of pain and betrayal fall to the ground
I can feel your heart beat slowing down
your eyes flicker and you gasp for one last breath
your hand goes cold in mine

what have i done?
You were the only person i had ever loved
Now youre gone, and its my fault to blame
If only i had told you i loved you one last time..

If only i had kissed your sweet delicate lips
and told you that you meant the world to me
But no, I sit here, dancing in the shadows
thinking of you.
