God, guide me through the Valley of the Shadows of Death, <br />For I know no love, nor what is best. <br />I feel a sharp pain deep inside my chest, <br />Is it my love about to fold, <br />Or is it just my heart growing cold. <br />I keep falling into the darkness. <br />I can't stop falling I have no harness. <br />My world is dead and black. <br />I'm surrounded by dark shadows back to back. <br />I wish they would stop and attack, <br />And finish my life. <br />Before my veins feel the blade of this knife. <br />God, guide me through the Valley of the Shadows of Death, <br />For I know no love, nor what is best.<br /><br />Osvaldo Govea<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/shadows-72/
