“Darkness falls where light shines brightest,
shadows paint images, portraits of who we really are.”

Our features ignored as our expressions are too,
they matter not, for the darkness in our hearts remains void of emotion

Emotion that reins free as long as we stay in the light, or so we imagine.
Hidden in our shadows are true forms of our inhibitions

Kept safe from prying eyes,
protected by the darkness

“Our shadows paint pictures of who we truly are, in that moment,
never what we were, ne’er what we may become.

So lets examine ourselves,
change what needs to be changed,
to one day see our shadows become who we wish we were

Today.
