Pain is the shadow of joy.
And shadows follow us throughout our life.
Without my shadow I'm a shallow pond,
sans depth, compassion or emotion.
...
Each time I look at you, I see life and after-life.
This is not the last station but one of many.
...
If you've lived true,
And you die young,
The game is already won,
Don't expect applause,
...
The challenges of life- the only ounce of truth lurking behind a facade of pageantry.
Who is the lucky one, pray tell?
...
Shadow
Pain is the shadow of joy.
And shadows follow us throughout our life.
Without my shadow I'm a shallow pond,
sans depth, compassion or emotion.
Thanks to the shadows all around, for because of them I learn to survive, give and love.
