Shadow Dweller


The light shines but does not illuminate
I am left in the shadows
My hands reach out
But the light burns my skin

Slowly I slink
Back into the pit
Ever desolate
Ever despairing

I am outcast
A pariah amongst friends
Harbinger of death and despair
All turn from me

I try to grasp the light
Where I once dwelt
Where I can no longer live
Never to know the warmth again
