"Shadows"
  by StraY12


I can see my heart in your eyes...
my pain inside yo' veins don't cry
my faults locked up in yo' mind
I realized if I don't change it's yo' life


I twist time backto find the right path
cuz my accidents right now should be my last
I seize hope with corrections, fate where do we go??
I hear "please don't" lightly fade out, life just disagrees tho'
the pressure piles up in my heart and soul
I'm in the darkest hole diggin' out...the hardest blow...
is seein' my face reflected back towards me
my faith's more weak not believin' this poor thing
despair fills the palms, soaked in my tears
the voices I hear come from seperate grave's I'm near
dry fear is soon felt I gotta finish my motive
tho this spirit's broken I got time if I rewrote this
switch the script and stop this bullshit right now
then death might bow out the sweat drips offa my eyebrow
I stopped before the light flashes dropped the bottle
if the outcomes awful for me atleast I still got you...


I can sense ya presence before I met the essence
you regressed depression by the help you connected
from the background I felt like I should back out
I dropped, blacked out with fates arms in the wrap around
s'pose you were'nt here you'd probably see a hearse here
strong tears squirt here n not a voice is heard here
once waterworks clear then there'd be a verse here
I left at your third year but I'm glad that your here
cuz it let's me know that somehow you'd grow
learn to love the broken spirit that I behold
but the past is riddled wit reasons I can give you
but I can't give truth to you, you'll see it grow a little...
once you understand all I had thought n planned
as a young man but couldn't cuz then I couldn't then now I can't
before time takes me I hope I can take you to safety
my shadow shall brace thee as long as you can embrace me

repeat top...

ahhhhh....this my favorite part....

Danng ya flow was definatley on point,and after reading some of your other poems i realized that you are someone that knows how to piece a poem together perfectly,like a masterpiece,every part belonging there,having its own special meaning--seems like you've been through alot and i can feel it when you write out these emotions in a poem---keep filling these pages because ill definatley keep readin--Prince
