Title...

Into the Land of the Shadow

When a friend tries and tries,

And eventually dies,

The joy they once bought,

Is now just a thought.

They way they could be,

Well now we can’t see,

Because they have travelled,

Into the land of the shadows.

 

You were there from the start,

But now you must part.

There weren’t ever but’s,

Just all those cuts,

You always tried,

But now they have died,

And gone,

Into the land of the shadows.

 

Their life so short,

Is now another thought

They used to be happy,

But now they feel crappy,

In the land of the shadows

    • I was in the land of shadow this august when they killed my boyfriend....I believe that the ones that are left behind going into the gray while they rest in peace. You feel all the bad emotions and forgot all the good things of life. Then you need to fight yourself or have someone to push you out of that trauma by putting color into your world. I have someone who has done that for me. The hard part is when tou keep revisiting that gray part once in a while the colors put in slurs into black again...patience is what you need...someone with patience and compassion.
