What shadow is this
That lies so quietly in wait
To devour  my thoughts,
my heart?

I speak not too loudly
And I will not say this name
For it gives life to that
Which now lurks
Now skulks

Do you not see it?
Surely I am not mad
From days of waiting
From nights of wandering

You say it is in me?
Then I command it be gone!!

But look!!
What shadow is this
That still surrounds the place
I keep those memories
Of you….

How do I not dread
The darkness
There?

what shadow is this, indeed...Jung said it was just the flip side of ourselves...hmmm...but I'll save that for a discussion forum. Nice ponder here on the darker voyages of thought.
