Shadows
March 11, 2011
I cannot get away
My soul oozes fear
Shadows stalk me everywhere
I pray the end is near
Behind every corner
It is always there
Eyes bearing into me
Hatred in its stare
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
It was an accident
It's my fault, my fault, my fault
Those actions I never truly meant
There is no where to run
And no where to hide
I am trapped, helpless, and afraid
Forever petrified
