What happened to you?
And the good friend that I knew?
Oh, what has your shadow
Been putting you through?
For you, dusk has fallen
No light to be found
I look at you and see
That in your shadow you've drowned
If you're falling, I can catch you
Don't let the shadows take control
Take my hand, I can lead you
Back to the light
When we were young, we'd play and we'd dream
Let go of our troubles, awful as they seem
Now, that all has faded back to the seams
Dreams long forgotten could've been the key
If you're falling, I will catch you
Don't let the shadows take control
Take my hand, I can lead you
Back to the light
Oh yeah, if you're falling, I will catch you
Our shadows haven't yet taken control
Hand in hand, we can both make it
In pieces, back to the light
So this is about a friend of mine with really bad anxiety and depression who struggles a lot, worse than I ever have, and my worries about if I'll ever be able to help her, and little bits from my little sister becoming more negative than she used to be. The darkness you fight is within you, but so is the light you search for- I'M MAKING A POEM ABOUT THAT!

PoetryI like writing songs and poems, some motivational, some just kinda random, but still meaningful. I hope to someday make the song-structured poems into songs someday, but we'll see. I hope you enjoy or learn something from these!
