The phrase "shadow of desperation" evokes a vivid image of a state of deep hopelessness and anxiety. This metaphor suggests that desperation, like a shadow, can loom over a person, casting a dark and pervasive influence on their thoughts and actions. It implies a situation where the individual feels trapped, unable to see a way out, and is consumed by feelings of fear and urgency. This shadow can obscure one's vision, making it difficult to see potential solutions or to remain optimistic.
