There’s not that much to say right now…
Flickers
I’m drifting between shadows and light
darting from one to the other
retreating to the darkness
chasing the light
but it comes too fast, and I too slow
though I may be enamored in its splendour
mesmerizing
but ungraspable
the light is too revealing anyway
exposing all that is wrong
and little that feels right
running back to the shadows
into the darkness
where the light does not burn
and does not shine
either way I can’t see
except for the light dancing
in the shadows
optimism glimmering
within
flickers of [note: not listed in order]
hope desperation
elation disappointment
bravery fear
dreams nightmares
knowledge confusion
confidence anxiety
belonging alienation
the auspicious
ominous future
flickers of everything and nothing
shadows dancing in light
light dancing in the shadows
