Shadows

Wandering for days, but you're lost in your thoughts;

there's no map to guide you home.

The shouting that surrounds you

will erode as you fall asleep.

And no-one there

will see you because

you're running away.

And no-one there

will hear you because

you've nothing to say.

Don't let the voices of your past

convince you to return.

Seek shelter and asylum

in the shadows that blind us all.

Your memories won't

leave you no matter

how far you run.

But if nothing else

stops you, I'll go

with you on your way.
