we keep ourselves safe by avoiding the shadows or so we believe
always remember: shadows are not possible unless there is light
the paths that we walk have shadows from our past that we can walk right past
we light the shadows in an attempt to drown out our fear of the dark
things we do not touch can still be affected by the shadows we cast
we need light to see but the light doesn’t let us see what it’s hiding
lurking in shadows moving quietly at night spreading happiness
perception can shift like shadows on a snow bank reality stays
