You speak of the shadow
Have you not felt its power?
Its wisdom?
I am a shadow
A shadow of the past
A shadow of the future
A ghost in the present

Speak not of the shadow..
For it is not what you speak of!

A shadow is what you become
It is the result of understanding life..
But not the meaning of life..

Let me be.. no light shall destroy me..
Leave me to be..
To perish..
Forever an absence of light..
