Shadows

Darkness grows each new day
the numbing never goes away
lurking in my deepest thoughts
I want to run but I can not

Coming from down in my soul
causing pain wherever it goes
sinking teeth at any time
ebbing life away from mine

I would fight if I knew how
I can see them coming now
not even the power from above
can stop the shadows of your love.
