Shadow

No face No eyes No breath No life Tears come In streams Down cheeks Darkness, no light No one looks at The faceless being They pass without a glance She's nothing to them Insignificant to everyone, Everything. A shadow A looming annoyance To the light. A darkness that No one wants to see. Constantly belittled, No voice, no opinions. Stupidity spews from the mouth While glistening intelligence Flows out of the light. She's beautiful With a disgusting shadow She's the light The other, a shadow Of ugliness and insignificance No personality Owned by the light, Prisoner to it. Shadows can't break free To become her own light Instead trapped, imprisoned Stuck to one Darkness has only feelings of Sadness, loss Defeated Killed No spirit No eyes No face No breath No life Pain, angish, and tears An everyday feeling Darkness grows in the Eyes that are open They are blind to the anguish One simple statement Kills her Stomach drops Tears jump to the surface They're held inside until The shadow slinks back Into the darkness Sobs break the eternal silence She falls into A dreamless sleep Only to awake Into complete darkness
