Shadows that once were

A shadow that once was
Is filled with light now
No longer does it hide in the crowd
No longer does it cry
A shadow that once was
Only echoes in memories

A shadow that once was
Found a way to fight
Now stands at the edge of dawn
Now torn between the two
A shadow that once was
Hears only screams

A shadow that once was
Was pushed to deeper darks
New walls to overcome
New paths nowhere
A shadow that once was
Can now only whisper
