My Dark Poetry

Shadow

I've spent all of my life,

Living in your shadow,

Never noticed by anyone other than you,

Treating me like I'm nothing,

And then telling all of your friends,

How horrible it is to have to live right next to me.

I could never get my point across,

Without you bringing up how wrong I'am,

You would break down my walls,

Until I was crying on the ground.

No matter how many times I told you to stop,

You just kept teasing and hurting me.

I have lost count,

Of all of the secrets I had told you,

That you let lose into this god damned world,

Thanks to you I have problems with trust,

Thanks to you I'am just a hollow shell of my former self.

I used to live in your shadow,

And you haunt my memories,

I don't know why you used to hate me,

What did I ever do wrong,

All I did was live in your shadow.
