"In twilight's hush, where shadows play


 "In twilight's hush, where shadows play

I whisper secrets, to the fading day
If you could see, the demons that reside
In this soul of mine, where darkness won't subside

I'm a canvas stained, with every mistake
A tapestry of flaws, that I can't erase
I'm a virus spreading, through every pore
A plague that infects, and leaves scars galore

But still, I dream, of your gentle touch
Of being seen, without this crushing clutch
Of being loved, despite my darkest night
Of being saved, from this endless fight

But fear holds me back, like chains of shame
From revealing truths, that would bring me to blame
I'm afraid to be seen, in all my decay
To be rejected, and sent away

Yet, in your eyes, I see a glimmer of hope
A chance to start anew, a chance to cope
With the weight of my past, and the demons I've fed
A chance to heal, and plant a new seed

But for now, I'll keep my distance true
And hope that someday, you'll see me anew
Not as a virus, but as a soul on fire
Longing to be saved, and set free from my darkest desire"
