• My heart is shadowed
    Shadowed by pain and loss
    So much grieving each night
    My heart is shadowed
    Shadowed by regents and fears.
    Fear that the things I regret will repeat
    My heart is shadowed
    Shadowed by tears and feelings unspoken
    My heart is shadowed
    Shadowed by the world and expectations
    Shadowed so that I can hide within myself
    My heart is shadowed
    Shadowed so I can drown
    Drown in memories and things unspoken
    My shadowed heart will claim me
    Claim my soul until there is no more
    My shadowed heart
    Will soon be forgotten.
