What the Shadows Know
The candle flickers, soft and low,135Please respect copyright.PENANAV8b3Z14wNI
casting shapes the night won’t show.135Please respect copyright.PENANASfCko3sAvM
A careful smile, a measured breath,135Please respect copyright.PENANA4nBG8rVQ78
a love that lingers close to death.
Beneath the stars, beneath the sky,135Please respect copyright.PENANAQxSY2KIeN2
lie quiet truths we drape in lies.135Please respect copyright.PENANAHOfXfs6ekY
A heart that aches, a soul that waits,135Please respect copyright.PENANA1ya0ueRAXL
behind the lock of iron gates.
Footsteps echo, voices fade,135Please respect copyright.PENANA6QSjoVgnkS
in hollow halls where ghosts are made.135Please respect copyright.PENANAUZ32ejlAVo
A whispered name, a fleeting glance,135Please respect copyright.PENANAzU1Hsr8lS4
a sorrow masked in quiet dance.
The world won’t see, the world won’t ask,135Please respect copyright.PENANAwGOKgxCvLb
what hides beneath this perfect mask.135Please respect copyright.PENANAuR3sUgSsuf
But in the dark, the shadows know—135Please respect copyright.PENANAD44qJRD2wT
the things we fear, yet never show.
