Why There are Shadows
_**From the darkness of the shadows
Where the demons lurk in waiting
Lies an abyss of nothingness
That traps Hope behind steel grating.**_
_**Hope had become an exhibit
In a zoo of lost dreams. They cried
With fur soaked in the blood of Faith
Who had been hunted down untried.**_
_**What felt of an eternity
Had doubt filled my lungs to the brim.
To the brim with a burning air
That fed my soul with thoughts so grim.**_
_**Thoughts so grim one would never see
The light that shines from the sun bright.
The eyes lose sight of anything
That could radiate colors. Light**_
_**T'was a memory; nothing more.
As shadows danced with the light
Forming figures that one could read.
Then those shadows formed a sight**_
_**That bore the name [iRenia](%5C).
Who knew that the shadows could make
Such a lovely contrast with light
To form an image for my sake.**_
_**Her shadow is what forms a light
That had brightened my soul once more.
[She](%5C) freed my hope with [her](%5C) image.
And so I love her evermore.**_
