I Am A Shadow Dancer


I am a shadow dancer
A block of life tossed aside
Forgotten within the collective minds of those whose social boundaries reach invisible peaks

My achievements
My successes
My accomplishments
They know none of these

My failures they mock
My losses are their wins
For every step I fall they climb another

They don't understand my desperation
To be one of them
Of the gang
Not to be pushed aside for my own gifts

To move out of the shadows

Into the light


Kill me tonight and I will love again
Leave me to live and I live in pain
Leave me no love and I live in vain
Kill me tonight and kill the pain

Sorry about the typos, my ghost Fred was having fun.

Kill me tonight and I will love again
Leave me to live and I live in pain
Leave me no love and I live in vain
Kill me tonight and kill the pain

Thanks for the tip. I've fixed the typos but now I've got a post I don't need! I don't suppose there's any way of deleting it is there? or is it only the administrator people that can do that?

I've sent Fred to bed, but I can hear him pounding away at the floor... Oh my head!


Thanks again

Zaynab

Kill me tonight and I will love again
Leave me to live and I live in pain
Leave me no love and I live in vain
Kill me tonight and kill the pain

ROTFL at what you did to Fred. The moderators can help you with deletions. Just email one of them, they are listed at the top of the page.
