Shadow.

I was really frustrated but this poem hasn't come out of all fairness.

The rays of sunlight
Signify the coming of dawn.
Through my eyes you can see plight
Everytime the rays come along.

Darkness has engulfed me
Has given me a haven to stay.
Light has become a monster to receive
It has done nothing but betray.

I've given up , I've retreated
Into a shell of a person I was.
My pains have not meted
The success I deserved , A complete loss.

The thin line between darkness and light
Is what I'm treading now
It is a depressing sight
I'm waiting for it to pass somehow.

You were my friend , an aquaintance
Someone I adored
But only when you needed my assistance
Did you plan for me a carnival galore.

I was just a stepping stone
Another that you trampled.
You forgot that it was just a loan
The glory that you basked in.

On the surface you treated me an equal.
You were devious enough to act like you cared.
Like the titanic my broken hull ,
Could never be repaired.

You were indebted to me
You didn't bother to know.
It hit you like a flurry
The happiness you had borrowed.

I was coated in a sheen of rage
Vengeance was on my mind.
I realised I as no sage
My teeth continued to grind.

All these months of perspiration
With no clear-cut way to success.
You stole my inspiration
You drowned me in a never ending abscess.

I have decided it is enough
I no longer want to be your shadow.
Even though the path has been rough
I'll be out of this sorrow.

Now that I know I outrank you.
All I needed was consideration.
I have all rights to sue
For making my life the worst combination.

I'm no longer under your power
No longer your lingering shadow.
Now I get an admirous shower
While you stand below and bow.

Alamelu.
