we fear the shadows
but really
it is our own darkness
we fear
we are a species
terrified of itself
when you have seen
the heart of your darkness
you will be whole
but while you deny it
and push it away
in favour of
just the light
you will be
tormented
by the ghosts
and demons
of your shadow world
life is not light or shadow
life is whole
it is all things
it is you
who favours one
over the other
be whole, embrace everything
