Shadows Poem, by MaddieRae, at My poetic side

She looks back on the things she has done..

Wondering why it ever mattered..

She is tapped inside the world she knew...

Trying to grab on to anything that will set her free..

She keeps getting sucked inside this world..

crying and begging to be forgiven..

As she grew the clouds disappeared..

She realized what she feared..

Where just shadows that feared her more..

Her new found kindness was her rope..

And she grabbed and climbed..

She'll never go into that world again..

The shadows now hang their heads in regrets..

while she holds hers up high..

leaving the shadows trailing behind..

Very good write, those clouds will disappear as your head goes above them and heads for the light.
