The Long Forgotten Shadow

The Long Forgotten Shadow

As I sit here in silence I think of him.
Thinking of all these confusing questions
I wish, wait, and hope but it isn't enough.
This pain I feel inside...
How do you release it?
How do you make up for what's already there?

So much I kept inside...
But I feel no sense of comfort.
All I see is both of us drifting apart.
As I lay in the darkness...
I dream of what use to be...
When it first began...

The joy and laughter we share...
A longing from the past
If I say goodbye
Only misery is there to guide me.
Love is no longer here
Only pain and suffering.

As I leave you behind
I know I'll always be there...
In your thoughts...
In your dreams...
A shadow of your long forgotten past.
One Life. One Love. Cherish it

As I disappear lonely in your memory
I love you and I say this From my heart.
But you wasted my love
Part of my life...
And my time...
Infatuation was just what we were...

My past is always there.
Haunting and stalking my steps.
To show what a fool I've been
I only hope you enjoy your life
Because without me...
I guess you don't have to worry...
About someone who was there that you never cared...
