Summary: A song by Marin, aka Swift, a character from my Shadow and Light story ^_^
It's more of a song than poetry, but then again, it's the same, right?
Hope you guys like it!

Lead Me to the End by Red Sparrow
(Little tip for reading poetry. Don't pause unless you see a comma. If you go to the end of a line and don't see a comma, just flow onto the next line without stopping. Hope that helps. ^_^ )
Every night I sit alone by myself,
I look up at the picture that I have of you
and realize that it's simply not enough.
Can I do nothing to make my wish come true?
I cry all by myself,
Bury my misery.
And I never know for sure
what is wrong with me.
All those silly dreams,
I know what they mean,
They're tellin' me to just let you go.
Well I'm not that weak, and I'm ready to let it show.
And now, I know,
That all I have to do
is go to you,
I'm sick of waiting.
And now, I know,
There'll be no turning back
until this is through,
I'm so much stronger,
I won't let go,
So Lead. Me. To. The. End.
I slowly take your picture off that dusty shelf,
and I know in my heart
that our promise still holds true.
But still, It's simply not enough.
It won't take me away,
It won't take me to you.
All those silly dreams,
I know what they mean,
They're tellin' me to just let you go.
Well I'm not that weak, and I'm ready to let it show.
And now, I know,
That all I have to do
is go to you,
I'm sick of waiting.
And now, I know,
There'll be no turning back
until this is through,
I'm so much stronger
I won't let go,
So Lead. Me. To. The. End.
All night I spend
in front of that lonely fireplace.
I'm not sure why,
in my heart theres this empty space.
All those silly dreams,
I know what they mean,
They're tellin' me to just let you go.
Well I'm not that weak, and I'm ready to let it show.
And now, I know,
That all I have to do
is go to you,
I'm sick of waiting.
And now, I know,
There'll be no turning back
until this is through.
Theres no debating.
And I'll come to you and say
as I round that bend,
Please Lead. Me. To. The--
And now, I'm sure,
That all I have to do
is fly to you,
I'll spread my wings.
And now, I'll come,
There'll be no turning back
until this is done.
Theres no use dreaming,
I'm strong enough.
And I'll come to you and say
as I round that bend,
Please Lead. Me. To. The. End.
