Shadows : stream of consciousness

Shadows you who hide so much reveal to us this knowing :

that darkness is the birthplace of the real for all that is obscured from sight contains hidden life energy and light and forbidden things we denied often bring our soul delight

dare we open the door again to the place where these precious things are all covered over with cobwebs and by the filtering light take them tenderly in our hands brushing them clean?

there is so much that we do not know the full meaning of until we totally lose the way to light for it is true that when we learn to embrace the shadows somewhere deep in our heart and soul we discover this undeniable truth

a part of ourselves we once lost we are now finally finding the way home to.
