Hiding in Her Shadow

Folder: 
Other Dedications

In the comfort of darkness,

she tramps

into forbidden corners,

convinced she belongs there.



I follow her,

dancing hand-in-hand

with her silhouette

at this ghost-attended ball.



The spotlight sways

across the dance floor

offbeat with

the haunting music.



We shun the light

And cower in shadows,

shrouded in sin-

our masks of imperfection.



The glow silences

the eerie melody  

until we begin to emerge

out of obscurity.



We hesitate towards the beam,

letting it warm us pure

and vow to never

dwell in darkness again.
