You Can't Run from Me

- April 03, 2017

I am the shadow of destiny

That beckons in silence

From the dark woods of the twilight

I am the terror of traitors

The conflicts in the bones of the wicked

The trouble that flows in your blood

It is I who knock at your door at dawn

And lay at your bed at dusk

I hiss the truth into your ears

And guild to your wandering feet

Yet you ignore my whispers

Wishing I never lived

How far can you run

From your own shadow

How long shall you kill

A being that can never die

You can't survive without

I am your conscience
