Me and my shadows

The darkened shadows is where I weep

Huddled up and trying to sleep 

To withdrawn to even speak

This is loneliness and me.

Each day seems cold there is no sun

No warmth of joy or anyone,

To fill my days with whom to talk

Some may say this is my fault.

They said you, decided to be reclusive 

You made your choice to be exclusive 

To your own self and no one else

They have no idea how i felt.

Now in this dark prison I call home

I fear that I may die unknown

But demons and the big dark world

Keep me inside, in my own hell. 

I fear almost all that life has to offer

In your world I would never prosper

Instead I would wilt under the fear

Of anyone who comes near.

I want to live a normal life

I would like to live how you term right

But I know this is not to be

So my future will not be too bright.

So if you come and look for me

Seek the shadows and hear my pleas

For there I am curled and scared

Believing that no one in the world cares.

  3. I care…
    why are you hiding away from the 🌎 world…

    Nothing can be so bad or sad 😭 that you become so reclusive.. and withdrawn into yourself..

    Come out and play.. I’m here.. willing to skip and walk with you.. laughing 😂 and enjoying the ☀️ sunlight…

    1. This was inspired by a friend in need but I think it’s amazing that you care and reach out like this 🙂

      1. Hahahaha.. I thought 💭 it may be just a poem..

        But.. I wanted you to know I’m here as a friend if you needed one ☝️…

        Some just really hide away from the world 🌎.. for reasons we could never understand.. but I think 💭 if we just reached out to them.. instead of ignoring them.. maybe they will accept our invitation of friendship…
