[shade] Poem by Empath In flames

I’m a shade from existence,
Outlined and badly sketched.
My soulless complexity.
Has become my only identity,
As I stand in the shadow of time.
I can read you like a screenplay.
In a movie,
With no sound.

I step forward…
I breathe…
I watch gently…
I perceive…

You sit there on display,
Sheltered in gold.
Your jewel encrusted smile,
Glistens in spherical blaze.
Your an undiscovered light
That I have found.

I step forward…
I breathe…
I watch gently…
I perceive…

As I walk near,
I shake inside.
My heart pounding,
Like it never has done before.
Each step shoots me down,
An invisible gun,
Bullets dragging me to the ground.
Each Breath I take,
pushes me back and forth.
Like a evil storm,
Try to break my intensions
My thoughts and courage,
Start to drift away.
I try to hold on….
I grasp tightly onto this boat.

Rocking back and forth….
Back and forth…
Back and forth…

I….
I… walk away….

I walk passed,
Can no longer breathe.
I look down,
I slowly leave….

I’m a shade from existence,
Outlined and badly sketched.
My soulless complexity.
Has become my only identity,
As I stand in the shadow of time.

~This movie still has no sound,
And it looks like it never will…~
