Shadow

 

Have you ever felt this way

wanting something too fragile to touch

standing in darkened doorways

merely leaving footprints in the dust

 

It's proof beyond fascination

cold wind bites at my skin

nothing but a loss of courage

keep my wild dreams with in

 

Picture of control

vision of my soul

silent prey upon the heart

too afraid to start

coming near

feel the fear

catch the drift

Shadow in the mist

 

Have you ever felt this way

desires just beyond your grasp

lurking in the shadows

always hidden behind a mask

 

It's proof beyond frustration

hot breath steams the window

keeps me in the doorway

for a flickering of hope

 

Picture of control

vision of my soul

silent prey upon the heart

too afraid to start

coming near

feel the fear

catch the drift

Shadow in the mist
