Beneath the shadow

Beneath the shadow lies,

My soft and somber cries,

Painful memories cutting deep,

My body is their swollen sheath,

My heart it doth embrace you,

Yet I am forced to turn away,

Emptiness overcomes me,

Death a mere glance,

Your eyes are so dark and deep,

Black pools of lost innocence,

Your heart is made of steel,

Unbroken and unbreakable.

Mine is not.
