HIDING IN THE SHADOWS

I hide in the shadows,
Hungering to be seen.
Theirs no allure to live,
When your not a being.

The wind in my sails,
Have dampened down.
There's only room for solitude,
Whilst people are around.

I have no ego to caress,
No confessions to confess.
Cognitive confusion reigns supreme,
Leftovers from a day left to dream.

A wanderer of demonic birth,
Leftovers from the war's on earth.
Neither living nor dead, when they
killed Jesus, they abandoned me,
Here on earth instead.

So I hide in the shadows,
Hungering to be seen.
Theirs no allure to life,
When your not a being.
