Shadows

Shadows

I have been a secret all my life

My worries, my pain, even the cry of my heart

My disgust, my anger, even the words I want to lash out

I have kept it hidden and that made me scarred

I made a chamber of darkness

Who would have thought that light can see through it?

I wanted every part of me concealed

And I thought I would keep it forever

But life is a circus full of clowns, an ironic arena

I wanted keeping it in the dark

But light is the only thing that heals

And to have it in me is exposing my shadows

This is me and my story

All the pain is my secret and even my healing is sacred

I have done it in silent, I have won it alone

My shadows are now in the light, there's nothing I can hide.
