Deadly Shadows Poem by Fredrik Hole Halvorsen

I believe I can see you even tho you’re not there
Every time I turn you vanish into thin air
Lurking in the shadows of my pain
Making me believe I’m marked

I can feel your cold hand on my shoulder
Dragging me to you
Sooner or later we all submit to you
Why do you have to take me so soon

Can I prolong my stay
I have avoided you for so long
Can I escape you once more
Like I did so many year ago

You play with my mind like its your toy
Using my imagination against me for your amusement
Only to tear me apart once again
