Voices From The Shadows

I remember myself
Of long ago
The shadows
Remind me so....

As the darkness passes
I walk into it
Never afraid
For I have been there before....

I hear the voices
Screams, cries too
I see the light
From the shadows within....

The smiles of children
As they play
Darkness falls
As the day's end nears
They return home
A smile, to a frown....

Like a raging river
Pulling them down
Shadows grow darker
Evil within
Could I ever explain
Where it begins....

I see the light
As I step away
The shadows calling me
Everyday....

I turn deaf
As the voices call
Leaving the past
In the shadows
Voices and all.....
