What the Shadows Know
The candle flickers, soft and low,312Please respect copyright.PENANA769s1QC11D
casting shapes the night won’t show.312Please respect copyright.PENANAegfQqqp6jg
A careful smile, a measured breath,312Please respect copyright.PENANASeXb0eg6GH
a love that lingers close to death.
Beneath the stars, beneath the sky,312Please respect copyright.PENANA9lTfaIGUg4
lie quiet truths we drape in lies.312Please respect copyright.PENANABuQYlFjEu1
A heart that aches, a soul that waits,312Please respect copyright.PENANAN9brj3sq0Y
behind the lock of iron gates.
Footsteps echo, voices fade,312Please respect copyright.PENANAOmJeVev4jZ
in hollow halls where ghosts are made.312Please respect copyright.PENANAAaf8kkujEJ
A whispered name, a fleeting glance,312Please respect copyright.PENANAXeOKq44O31
a sorrow masked in quiet dance.
The world won’t see, the world won’t ask,312Please respect copyright.PENANAfhmxdskqsa
what hides beneath this perfect mask.312Please respect copyright.PENANAf7iR9dVwdW
But in the dark, the shadows know—312Please respect copyright.PENANA6ReiollOwr
the things we fear, yet never show.
