Shadows

I never wanted you to know my story
Never wanted you to share my pain
All I ever wanted to do was love you
I know I can never take your pain away again
I wonder why this happened
Or if it were all a dream
A dream turned into a nightmare
Where life seems too obscene
I died that day he said it
I can't find life anymore
I'm trying to climb out of ten shadows
So I can love you more
I cannot stand the agony
So I keep you surrounded by those who can
And GOD will help me through this to get back to you
And that's my prayer. Amen.
