Shaniqua McCrae - Shadows

This breeding ground for destitution
I see deprivation of wisdom
Shunned by none other than my own
Deprived of existence
Lurking in the shadows
On a wrong path
Destined to see the light
Only to see the fire
Ignite and burn my future
Destroying all attempts to success
Preventing this hell from torching my soul
Reluctantly parting my lips to call this place...home
Discouraged by my surroundings
Failed from my own actions
I repent on my inferior decisions
From fragile thoughts
Of a weakend mind
I succumb To this darkness
When i lurk throuh the shadows
In this place of no return.
