Transitioning your mind

Undress the shadow 1994 (Huddersfield)

Free verse
Don't be afraid of your shadow
In the steps where you go
For what you once were
You are no more
You grew, outgrew and grown
And even in the darkest times
Your shadow leaves you on your own
So why let a dark area shape you?
When the rays between the light are what made and placed you
Hold on to the brightness
Remove the objects shading the light
Let it radiate through
And say these words with me
" A brighter day is waiting I see it in my vision, the collide of the light and darkness shaped me into transition "
