I've seen the light
it is so bright in my eyes
almost blinding me
It illuminates all that is around me
Nothing can hide in the shadows anymore
Nothing.
I'm not sure how I feel about that
How can I deal with those things
I thought were gone?
How can I look at what was in
the shadows of my mind?
Can the light help me?
Can the light show me the way?
Now it seems that the only way
for me to let those things go
is to shine the light on them.
See them for what they are.
Are they real?
Are they still important?
Do I still resonate with it?
Maybe not so much.
Hiding it in the darkness
shows me it had a chance to live
but when I pulled it out in the light
it dissolved away.
Ah, maybe it seems
that the light overcame the darkness
and now I can finally see.
