Shadows for a fool

I found an old man in a cave,

Lost in time and rage,

Who said he had forgotten to dream,

When he learned to scream,

He saw what once was light,

And grieved, for it was bright,

Child, once you learn to scream,

You learn to despite.

He sees the shadows in the walls,

Thinking it’s reality who calls,

To think that such mistake,

It’s going to keep you forever awake,

Why is everything dark,

When I’ve seen a spark?

Open your eyes old fool,

You’ll make death drool,

When encounters,

That you lived thinking shadows were life.
