Unspoken Haiku (2012)

by The Shadow

By Damien Knight

Few words exchanged now.
Shouldn’t I feel hurt in this?
Why? I have grown cold!

My Word (Dec 2011)

by The Shadow

By Damien Knight

I lost her love
I’m lost inside
I’m so empty
Nowhere to hide
I’m so sorry
For the darkness
It blinds me
I want her caress
I didn’t mean it
Those cruel words
I know they hurt
I just feel unheard
I want you, longing
Deeply I swear
You’ll never hear
Otherwise, I’m there!
I’ve given my word.

Confused Emotions (Nov 15 2012)

by The Shadow

By Damien Knight

I feel deflated, all these feelings locked away
Sealed up inside, caged and isolated
I was ready, able to express what I had to say
I confronted my truths my emotions
I let it all out, and the days now pass
I feel deflated, perhaps I’ve made a mistake
I want to feel secure, forget the past
Should I give up I’m not that type
I’m not the kind who walks away
To break my word like love’s a lie
I said I’m going to be there for her
To just turn my back, takes a lot to break me
I have to try, the voices echo in my head
I should have listened when they say “leave”
It’s all I hear inside, it should be the past
Memories of bitterness and joy are strong
I must focus on her, my love, my light
It has been her, with me, all along
Everyday she’s with me, I value her
Her time means everything, her with me
I felt so ignored, everyday she’s there
When I call she answers, she has my loyalty
I love my lady with my heart and soul
Put my heart into making her smile
Her happiness it is my true goal
After all her smile is the thing I miss most

Losing Interest (Oct 30, 2011)

by The Shadow

By Damien Knight

I’m going to get you
I have said over
Not anymore true
What I once desired
Has lost all appeal
What I thought was love
It isn’t real
When hunger is denied
As long as mine
Have you lied
Is this how it really is
The longing now fades
And that’s how it goes
I no longer wish to persuade
I’d rather walk away

Waste? (Oct 2013)

by The Shadow

By Damien Knight

I am but a waste of space
Thousands of miles I came
Looking to be at your side
Spent away every dime
Yet I am inadequate
Aren’t I yours?
Aren’t you mine?
Was this a waste of time?
I refuse to believe such
You always meant
So very much
Was I never enough
Still here I am
You will someday see
And I now give my love

A Wicked Man (Oct 2013)

by The Shadow

By Damien Knight

Never happy, never enough!
All I did was feed you love!
Am I so evil, so wicked still?
Does my face make you Ill?
I should do as you desire,
Since you reject my loves fire.
After all I’m such a man
So cruel and can’t understand
How you suffer so with this.
Here you deny me even a kiss!
Yet I have never truly left
Despite you leaving me bereft .
I pay your bills, buy your groceries
Yet you still are upset with me!
How do you think I feel?
My love treated like it isn’t real,
Hiding me away like we aren’t a thing.
Acting like I’m a casual fling
Cut me out from your family.
Yet you claim to want to marry me?
I don’t know what happened or why
But it feels like “we” are a lie.
It’s a harsh slap in the face!
You expect me to stay in this place?
Made to feel like shit, I do everything!
You just kept treating me like nothing.
It just never was enough
No matter how much I gave my love.

Scarred

by The Shadow

By Damien Knight

I gave my heart away.
I do not regret,
Her heart I did not sway,
Yet she I cannot forget.
Try as I have to ignore
My pain inside fades slow.
I can’t not love anymore,
I try but the feelings won’t go.
I love my angel beyond the stars.
The past haunts with pain.
She gave me so many scars
To see them drives me insane

Let Go

by The Shadow

By Damien Knight

Try to let go, forget her face
Don’t cling to the honey taste
Of her lips against your skin
Don’t let this pain inside win
Her name echos in my head
Our song plays, wish I were dead
Move on, move on I try to scream
But I’m taunted by our dream
I am not weak, I live for me
Her words can’t put me on knees
I won’t allow her to taunt
Her memory a spectral haunt
I must let go and let life flow
If I hold the past I’ll never know
