What the Shadows Know
The candle flickers, soft and low,150Please respect copyright.PENANAVsRIGxNwEY
casting shapes the night won’t show.150Please respect copyright.PENANABet05hQxDB
A careful smile, a measured breath,150Please respect copyright.PENANArxCSvDSHWh
a love that lingers close to death.
Beneath the stars, beneath the sky,150Please respect copyright.PENANAh8BdMc8JYC
lie quiet truths we drape in lies.150Please respect copyright.PENANAmEutqbDNTp
A heart that aches, a soul that waits,150Please respect copyright.PENANA0jaEgnPE83
behind the lock of iron gates.
Footsteps echo, voices fade,150Please respect copyright.PENANArY9o5p5DbD
in hollow halls where ghosts are made.150Please respect copyright.PENANATlHww7AARS
A whispered name, a fleeting glance,150Please respect copyright.PENANAW6eYtEtLcR
a sorrow masked in quiet dance.
The world won’t see, the world won’t ask,150Please respect copyright.PENANAOPGwFR40Vd
what hides beneath this perfect mask.150Please respect copyright.PENANA6teiJJJpLW
But in the dark, the shadows know—150Please respect copyright.PENANAOxBWu1QLsA
the things we fear, yet never show.
