What the Shadows Know
The candle flickers, soft and low,181Please respect copyright.PENANAtiMEJWXOA2
casting shapes the night won’t show.181Please respect copyright.PENANA889YpY7XR5
A careful smile, a measured breath,181Please respect copyright.PENANAHOhKnkUq3H
a love that lingers close to death.
Beneath the stars, beneath the sky,181Please respect copyright.PENANA4V6nlV0Myc
lie quiet truths we drape in lies.181Please respect copyright.PENANAWAXyPZ5aX2
A heart that aches, a soul that waits,181Please respect copyright.PENANAcIVcfqPNNY
behind the lock of iron gates.
Footsteps echo, voices fade,181Please respect copyright.PENANAQzoJxtpxUL
in hollow halls where ghosts are made.181Please respect copyright.PENANAo3AfpXIiY2
A whispered name, a fleeting glance,181Please respect copyright.PENANArM1Fy115mh
a sorrow masked in quiet dance.
The world won’t see, the world won’t ask,181Please respect copyright.PENANApHkitqutVh
what hides beneath this perfect mask.181Please respect copyright.PENANAo9TVyZlnk8
But in the dark, the shadows know—181Please respect copyright.PENANA4Iz4PyCi0A
the things we fear, yet never show.
