Shadows


Seven shadows perpetually bound to my being Seven shadows bonded by the silk that course through our diminutive veins The aspheric radiance cascades upon seven amorphous figures, with one seeking a soul Joyful memories, zealous laughter, somber sorrows, and lugubrious tears are shared My beautiful nightmares instigate belligerent fights Lead to what is known as placid reconciliations Seven shadows overshadow each unique heart Seeking a release from the grasps of uniformity Seeking an ear for my silent screams Seeking my own unique heart The pressure of my shadows hinder my voice from being illustrated I strived to shade the sidewalk in the image of one shadow I hoped to devour the bitterness of my own failure Finally, the clouds of identity have over casted on my six shadows Sun! Your beam of light may not shine in full force, but I know my shadows will eternally remain interconnected within my spirit You now decipher each silhouette in its own glory And now I have found my shadow in the midst of mayhem No longer am I defined by the shadows of my shape I am now defined as the shape of my shadow!
