What the Shadows Know
The candle flickers, soft and low,331Please respect copyright.PENANAJi8cEIgfLl
casting shapes the night won’t show.331Please respect copyright.PENANABlJaxfCZHY
A careful smile, a measured breath,331Please respect copyright.PENANAVrFehosKHe
a love that lingers close to death.
Beneath the stars, beneath the sky,331Please respect copyright.PENANAsyAgPWVl4w
lie quiet truths we drape in lies.331Please respect copyright.PENANAymY0zRRkYd
A heart that aches, a soul that waits,331Please respect copyright.PENANAfxg66b9Kt5
behind the lock of iron gates.
Footsteps echo, voices fade,331Please respect copyright.PENANA98AoThIH5Z
in hollow halls where ghosts are made.331Please respect copyright.PENANAjwPHXccjjI
A whispered name, a fleeting glance,331Please respect copyright.PENANA4Jm9ACMH3z
a sorrow masked in quiet dance.
The world won’t see, the world won’t ask,331Please respect copyright.PENANAcVYSSTc0GL
what hides beneath this perfect mask.331Please respect copyright.PENANAnUOWkw0bov
But in the dark, the shadows know—331Please respect copyright.PENANAgBWCbDnLsj
the things we fear, yet never show.
