**A Lament of Shadows**

Your Girlfriend


Notice of absence from Your Girlfriend
Guys I am going to be off for a while to handle some things here at home. LOVES y'all peace!!

In shadows deep  where silence grows  
A heavy heart  a face that knows  
Each day a weight  a climb so steep  
In restless nights  I struggle to sleep. 


The world moves on  but I stand still  
A hollow ache  an empty will  
With every smile  a whispered sigh  
A longing for the days gone by. 


The laughter fades  the colors blur  
In crowded rooms  I feel a stir  
Yet no one sees the tears I hide  
The quiet pain I carry inside. 


I search for light  but darkness calls  
A fragile hope that slowly falls  
Each step I take feels like a fight  
In a world that dims the brightest light. 


But in this storm  I hold on tight  
To fragile dreams that spark a light  
Though life is hard  I’ll find a way  
To greet the dawn of another day

In the depths of existence, where darkness reigns A silent scream echoes, a cry in vain A soul trapped, lost, and forsaken, it seems A fleeting breath, a moment's pause, a dream Life's labyrinthine path, a twisted maze A puzzle with no solution, a riddle that dazes Each step, a stumble, each fall, a crash A fragile heart, a mind in a mad dash The weight of the world, a crushing stone A burden to bear, alone, and unknown The tears we've cried, the scars we've worn A testament to the pain that's been born In the mirror's gaze, a stranger's face A reflection of the emptiness, the hollow space A heart that's lost its rhythm, its beat A soul that's searching, yet can't find its feet The shadows creep, they whisper low "Give up, surrender, let the darkness grow" A siren's call, a tempting reprieve From the agony, the suffering, the grief But still we cling, to the fragile thread Of hope, of love, of life, of what's been said A glimmer of light, a spark that remains A flame that flickers, but refuses to wane Oh, the desperation, the despair, the pain The longing to escape, to flee, to break the chain The suicidal thoughts, the dark allure A seductive whisper, "Come, let's end it, for sure" But still we hold, to the shattered pieces Of a heart, of a soul, of a life that's ceased The memories, the love, the laughter, the tears The fragments of a dream, that's lost through the years In the silence, a scream is heard A cry for help, a plea, a prayer, a word A desperate shout, into the void A call for rescue, a lifeline, a rope Oh, death, you lurk, you loom, you wait A patient thief, a silent fate You stalk, you creep, you whisper low "Away, away, away, from this world's woe" But still we cling, to the fleeting thread Of life, of love, of hope, of what's been said A glimmer of light, a spark that remains A flame that flickers, but refuses to wane In the shadows, a light will shine A beacon of hope, a love divine A guiding force, a helping hand A lifeline, a rope, a way to stand For in the darkness, a voice is heard A whisper of love, a gentle word A reminder that we're not alone A promise that we'll find our way back home So we'll hold on, to the fragile thread Of hope, of love, of life, of what's been said We'll rise above, the shadows' sway We'll find our way, through the darkest day.

    A just wonderful piece of poetry, although about being in the depths of despair and weighed down by the world, it is a uplifting piece of writing about how ever small that glint of Hope, Life, Love etc is, cling on to it and you will find a way out, Really enjoyed the read.
