Absent Lighted
Since birth we fear the darkness. We wear what it contains. We fear the shadows.
But what is dark without light? can we not have a shadow without a candle bright?
Darkness absence of light creates
Shadows our own form imitates
Don't fear absent illumination, give darkness a chance
don't run from your shadow but invite it to dance
