My shadow lurks in the darkness
Where light can no longer go
   I give you the choice now
      To be friend or foe.
For i don't know which way i'm
  headed on this dark and lonely
             Road
I have given up my warriors honor
      And my gentlemens code
  And the fates have cursed me
Or so i'm told that in spring my
     Memory will die away
         Like the snow

I'm a dying romantic and when i can no longer write i can no longer live -Jeremiah Johnson-

I like what seems to be a description of someone changing in this poem. Perhaps a little bitter, but changing; and I feel it here. I enjoyed this.

I believe this part says it all Jeremiah. And doesn't it just suck for you??? It is very WRONG to lie. And to pretend to be something you're not. I'll leave it at that, and you should know what I am referring to.
