The lone shadow
in the corner of the room? alone? no. always there to help, happy to be there, smiling and hoping to bring light to people's lives. the "helper" is here, "no worries, i'll do my best to help" "i'm here if you need me" comforting, caring, being there for others, thats you, thats your job, thats who you are "right?"
but.. what about you, who will help you, who will comfort you, who will see that you hurt, that you need to be cared for, that.. deep down, you also want to be heard
lone shadow, never the one to search for help, but always the one to help
"what can i do to make you feel better" (...) another soul saved, but feeling less alive
"don't worry, if you need me i'm here" (...) another wound tended to, but losing light in your eyes
when, when will you finally get tired
when will the fire completely run out
when will the sun finally give out
"i'm okay" "there are people that have it much worse" "it doesnt matter, i'm fine"
when will the lies finally stop
until you give in to the darkness
and drown in the void
"...im here for you" is that so?
lone shadow, not seen, not heard, where will those fake smiles take you if not to your own doom?
lone shadow, why keep up the self torture, dont you see how your soul is getting eaten away, little by little, slowly but surely
lone shadow....if you're gone, what shall then happen?....
