Hidden in Shadow
Who hides there in the shadows
Who hides there just below
The windows of your soul
Someone you don't want to know
But you do
Intimately
Subliminally
Completely
Who hides there in the shadows
Who hides there in the corners of your mind
Someone you thought
You left behind long ago
But you can't
And you won't
For it is you.
You can't hide forever.
Your actions are a mirror.
Your words are its frame.
Forever calling out your name.

The repeat effect is well rendered. There's a subtle syllabic harmony that counterpoints the existential gravity of the content. Nice work. 💖🙏🏻

Loving the dimensions of your words through this piece as self discovery and self reflection is definitely necessary to reconnect with thyself even when one finds thyself within the mist of the shadow even as you don't know who you are to anymore as thyself very thought provoking piece nicely composed dear poetess..respect

Thank you :) This is inspired by childhood trauma. I
I think I am in a place where I am more willing to face it and stop avoiding.

Yes indeed for its necessary to face that which almost broke us as we reconnect with thyself for to understand the realness of the mere depth of our subconsciousness we must face our truest sense of fear that comes from the past for you can not have real life time till you come to terms with your past for there are something's that we can't change yet there is things we can as they are those things within US that we must learn to truly navigate and change respect poet
