Shadows and Light

if you have no shadows then you're not standing in the light

Whispers and glances

The overwhelming urge

To see everything

To hear it all

To be in the middle of it all

Stares and shouts

The paralyzing realization

To be seen

To be heard

To be in the lime-light

whispers and shouts

glances and stares

The crushing realization

Of burning lights

And cooling shadows

The watchful eyes

and harsh voices

The shadows and light
