Shadows

 

 

 

 

 

a little late but it’s an ode to World Mental Health Day, and every other day. Remember: you matter

 

Between light and darkness.

Between love and indifference.

Between here and there.

You’ll find me.

You’ll find me between the shadows.

You’ll find me sitting in my light;

On the edge of darkness.

Holding onto both.

Comfortable in both.

Frightened of both.

Home in both.

In the shadows is where

I break and build.

Where I

Break and breathe.

Where I become.

Where I keep becoming.

Where my love

Sees its darkness.

Where it sees

Its light..

In shadows

Is where I crave.

In shadows

Is where I have.

In the shadows

Is where I give.

A beautiful and frightening place.

In the shadows.
