My Shadow

I can not have you to myself
A shadow that grows in my mind
Your love is nothing more than a warning
I pour more into you but nothing in return
I feel cheated in this escapade
I feel lonely and down
The air I breathe with you around is slowly going away
I draw nothing from you but everything is taken from me
I share nothing in my wake
You put me to sleep with false promises and penniless gifts
I show no smiles or signs of happiness
You have taken it all from me
I feel helpless in your place
Your shadow follows me to keep tabs
I feel drawn to run but the road seems to run with me
I want to escape you but I can't
I am trapped in this thing you claim as love
I want a way out
But you wont let me go
The sun shines on me
When I turn around I see you
When will I be happy
When will I be free.... free of you


Sincerely Yours,
Escape
