The Shadow of a Spectre

You are 
Not a ghost
Unseeing
You are breathing 
Your groans of 
Pain 
Do not go unheard
Don't be afraid of
Your 
Crescendo, my dear
Your supposed hauntings
Make it so much
Clearer for the ones
Who want
To draw you near 
The ones

Waiting to
Guide you 
Into 
The light 
Of your own veins

Darling, you're alive
They tell you that you're
A shadow
A spectre on the wall
But I say 
You're the sun
And all they see 
Is what they want 
To

So rage on in the night as long
As you want to
Scream your lament 
And let them know
You have a soul 
Let them know 
They can have 
All of your 
Shadows
