It's my first poem here, so I hope you guys like it.

I could have been a hero,
Instead I watched the pain.
If I could bring you sunshine,
I'd rather bring you rain.

Born of neglect,
I drown in failed ashes.
Lights of renewal approach me
But I comfort in the shadows.

Oh deadly storm and tempest,
I felt the painful joys,
I shared my hated love.
Why keep me breathing so?

The shifting sands of memory
Forget me not again.
But remember as I fade,
A second lost in time.

My heart, dark and cold,
Beats on a burdened chest.
My pitiful soul, weak and tearful,
Caged inside the abyss.

The kindness burns,
The light blinds.
But the night is my ecstasy.
The gloom is my life.

When will I find the bliss of eternity?
And can I feel again,
The lovely kiss of tenderness?
The Light is now my friend.
