Shadows

Shadows are all around me

I sit here thinking

I wonder what you think of me

I hear the voices say

Fire and something metal

No knife just metal and fire

I think what's going to happen

How will this school year be

How can I keep moving forward

Then in the back of my mind

I hear fire, metal yes there

Will be scared but you can't die

I think about what others would

Think of me, I know I need

Someone but who will be there through thick and thin

The shadows keep whispering

They can cloud my mind, they done

It before they will do it again

I can't hurt no more

That shadows say it

Will all go away what

Will you do

Will you watch me suffer

Will you help me or will you leave me

The shadows welcome me

With open arms but will you

As I think the answer is no

Will you prove me wrong

I love my friends and family

But they can't fix what is broken

Only the shadows

Or at least

They can hide it.
