Shadow - Poem

My smile missed his thoughts
lost the agony, he was forgiven
tears now dried, soul regained
hurt died and hate buried deep down

still do rise, some days after dark
seeping tears of the days lost
nothing to fight, none to conquer
shadows of a lost battle,shattered

rose now shining,might of my self
standing tall, with pride and strong
never to wither in a mellow breeze
haunted still, by a shadow long gone
