Shadows within

You are the one responsible for the chaos within you.

You created a world for yourself.
You have disregarded.
You have forgotten.
You have put everything but yourself aside.
You...are a treacherous one.

There are shadows within you,
One that does not allow your restraints to be broken,
Yet you have gone too far.
But your restraints become longer As the time passes.

For too long you have been allowed to bring yourself farther and farther.
You bring yourself your own grief.
Your actions have brought forth the horrible consequences you once feared so much.
Now you run rampant, destroying the very being you are.

Who are you?

Sadly, you and I are the same.
But the power you posses is far greater than mine.
But alas, the power I can gain maybe even greater.
You are the reason for which I have gained and lost.
You are the reason to where I stand.
I have allowed too much from you.
But even now I am unsure of what to do.

Am I unsure? Or am I unknowing?

You are dear to me, yet you betray me.
You have surpassed your own boundaries,
for your own selfish reasons.

Why do seek only for yourself?

Because of you I have grown to hate, even myself.
Having no other choice than to go down with you.

But no matter how many times you bring me down,
Even for your own reasons,
You slowly bring yourself down as well

I have feared so much.
So much hatred came from that fear.
Yet those fears came true,
many because of your treachery.

Control is lost to me.
I became one thing after another,
each worst than the last.
Sadly, this has not stopped.

Damn you treacherous one.

If I am to survive this,
How am I to do so?

But remember the shadows within you.
Remember those shadows that are your truth.
Remember those that know your evil,
Those that knows of your malice, your hatred,
your blasphemy, your lust... yes, your sins.

The shadows are your fractured continence.

Remember the regrets.
The wrongful paths of your
inexperience and ignorance.
And the hated consequences that
brought forth a wave of self destruction.

The shadows are your past.

Remember your lies, your own deceit.
You blinded yourself and wanted
everyone around you to do the same.
You feared to see light and recognize your failure.

The shadows are your hidden truth.

Those shadows remind you of every bit of what you don't see.
Everyday you see yet more, for your hatred grows.
It takes over, they see what you don't want to, but you can't close your eyes to them, no, for what your shadows see, you see.

Hide and seek through the sun's eyes,
nothing hides from it, its light sees
everything...
You can't hide from your
own shadow, but if you hide your shadow...
you can't see it but sees you.
In turn, all that you do, will be known by you
and no matter how much you hide, it will also be felt.

Face yourself now coward.
You will be your own demise.
On your own you are a relentless power.
One that will destroy the very being you are.

Face the shadows you hide.
Face those shadows that you hide from.
Face the one that you are.

For they, wanted or not, are your being,
your knowledge, dare I say, you own power.
They don't control you; they have no power over you,
other then the one you allow.
yet you do have power over them.
They are what created you, but separated from your being,
you are a power without control, you,
will be your own destructor.

Your own power can be
your own death.

Face me coward. For I am a shadow from within.
Face me or face insanity itself.
For you alone are a power without control.
You can bring about your own end.

I am your shadow, the one you hide.
The one you partially show for your own sake,
then discarded because you do not wish control.

I am the one you must face for I can be
the difference between your life
or your dark fate.

You know of me coward. You know
of my virtues, you know of your own.
It drives you insane to be reminded of them,
yet you do not feel them to be yours,
at times even, to be useless.

It drives you insane to be reminded of all
that you forgotten when you didn't want
to forget. To bring chaos when you wanted order.
The consequence is now that we have broken apart.
Now there is no control.

All there is left, is for us to face each other.
To truly find out, whom we really are... for we are one
yet we must battle against ourselves, to decide what will
rule over us.

This is our battleground now, when the time
comes, we will truly know what we have sown.
