Welcome to the shadows,
the darkness in which we all seem to hide.
To hide our limitless feelings of pain,
to stem the growing tide.
They act as a shell,
comforting us in our time of need.
But there are others out there,
wanting us to open up to their needs.
At times they are mysterious,
working in their own way.
But all along known to us,
that this is the only way.
The way of strength in solitude,
pain no longer our weakness.
Strength in loneliness,
though it threatens to drown us.
We welcome you to our midst,
let us show you our home,
for however long you dwell here,
our shell is your home.

Every day holds another happening.
In these days pain is misery
and almost nothing could ever ease it.
In solitude she takes her lonliness and
torture, and brings it true with physical mutilation.
A sharp edge to the the leg, arm, and head
nothing could stop her from these happenings.
All her children can do is watch in mortified shock.
As crimson spills representing her hatred.
Mind turned wrong slowly manipulated by her hate.
The idle handed, and idle minded.
One of the true pathways for the devil to sneak in.
To create one distinguished scar after another.
The greatest being her children who could only watch.
Can only hope something will happen to help.
Hoping while the hate slips into their own hearts.
And one can only think what will happen to these children soon.
In their eyes the only path is the one set out for them.
All of them pain, torture, despair, and death.
Will this be the only loving mother they will ever know?
