Shadows
Shadows
The many times I sought to change
the vision of a better time
the impetus of angry themes
impedes my search to find a clime
of sunlit paths to ply my dreams
the shadows lurk with discontent
to render me the hapless one
but shadows are invisible
unless they’re greeted by the sun
the shadows follow you in turn
to bear the tribulations woe
the sun will also follow you
to make the choice where you will go
