Looming Shadows

At long last I've seen them

I know that they are there

they follow me into my dreams

and pull me into an abysmal pit of dispair

I struggle with them everyday

Always failing to run away

they make me frown when I want to smile

they make me cry when I want to laugh

they make me well aware

that they are always there

following me into the future

haunting me in the present

I now know what's changed me

what's made my mood so dull

I now know the reason behind this endless darkness

I can feel their strong pull

Now, and at long last

I've acknowledged the looming shadows

of my past
