Standing alone beside my own reflection, Looking into the tear filld eyes that stair back at me, I wish I was looking into your eyes instead, but you wont have that, heart filld with to much pain to bair, I dont know if i can go on, Your love has causd my death, you came by and swept me off my feet, flying free like a bird I was shot down into the dust and dirt of my grave, It takes two to love, but now the shadows are my only companion in this world of darkness, Shadows consume me, Shadows embrace me, Shadows please dont let me go...

It's a beautiful concept and it flows well. There a few typos I would consider revising, other than that-job well done. :)
