A Beautiful Disaster

My lonely freedom is a mask,
I'm devastated by my shadow;
It's not less charming, yet so shallow,
A beautiful deceptive mess.

The shadow will disappear
Just when the darkness reigns our place.
But through this darkness my true face
Will be obscure - unless you're here.

And when you find me living dead,
The glance of ice will melt completely,
My sorrow is quelled so sweetly -
You've shown me life with no regret.

You strive - I strive, you fall - I follow,
Wherever you go, so do I.
Behind the shadow of sorrow
You've seen just me and brought to life.
