a poem about my blurryface
Shadow, she creeps
Behind every door
She’s always listening
And causing pain more and more
She will never release it
Her tight grip
It’s around my neck
And my throat it’ll slit
She stays by me
I can’t always see her
But she’s always there
Waiting to conquer
She wants to have
Every little bit
Constantly I’m fighting
She’s smarter I’ll admit
On my own
I’ll never defeat
The disgusting embodiment
Of pain and deceit
To be honest, however
I don’t want her gone
I feel like I need her
I know I’m just a pawn
But she helps me
Accomplish my work
And keeps me safe
But at what perk?
At no perk
Is the answer to that
She ruins me
She tells me I’m fat
But sadly, I can’t help myself
I see it as motivation
I know that’s not right
I never get a vacation
I never get a break
From her icy breath
That breathes on me
A scent of death
Oh Shadow
Please leave me alone
Oh Shadow
Hear me moan and groan
Hear my cries
In need of relief
I’m in so much pain
I have so much grief
I mourn the loss
Of my calm childhood
The time when everything
Seemed to be good
The time when I never
Had struggles like you
The time when my troubles
Were never true
I call you Shadow
For a good reason too
You’re always behind me
Telling me what to do
I can only see you
When light and hope contrasts
Then I notice
Your big black mass
Leave me alone
Go away I plead
I say it for the thousandth time
Just let me be
