Poem Poetry: The Shadow
Deep within we know
There, where the shadows grow
When a darkened image casts its spell
Inevitably I’m weakened, by shadows, by darkness
This invisible part of me
Throwing me, off course
Spinning me, away from truth
This is a shadow secret,
of the me yet to be.
I’ve cast discomfort into my life
Wrong learning
Incorrect accumulation of my growing
These blocks against which my evolution stumbles.
True deep light
This is our origin from which the metamorphosis of me happens
It’s my shining
I’m here to find.
Not far, no
Not near though
Down into the intrinsic
The simple silent place
Here is shadow free
It’s itself
Me.
Striving each new dawn to unite
With the universe
Transcending my eclipse.
