Shadow Of Life

Published by Family Friend Poems January 2008 with permission of the Author.

Walking in the shadow of fear,
drowning endlessly by a single tear,
running alongside self-discovery,

parts of mind going unknown,
dangerous sides going unshown.
One day you will eventually die,
so today make everything right.
