Shadows
A poem by Marie Candiotti
There are shadows in the depths of your closet
Creeping out behind old sweaters and magazines
That hold memories and remind you of the closeness
You once held with her
You once loved with her.
There are shadows in the depths of your soul
Sneaking up on your immaculate little life
That reek of lust and imperfections
You dare not uncover
You dare not reveal.
There are shadows in the depths of the day
Following your every move
Reminding you of your every move
You are so very lost
You are so very raw.
There are shadows in the depths of every wood
And every shadow proves that there is sunshine
Above the trees and around the leaves
You are not in the dark for long
You are not alone forever.
