What is in a shadow?
A dark dancing image.
An abstract art of light.
The bending, and still portrait of a silent world.

Even thinking before you speak doesn't prevent you from saying regrettable things. It doesn't make you feel more confident.
Even looking before you jump doesn't prevent you from falling.
It doesn't stop pain and suffering.
Knowing that nothing turns out the way you want doesn't stop you from trying.
And we are intelligent life forms?
Subjecting ourselves to criticism, passiveness, slavery of mind?
Never breaking free for the right reasons.

I carry this book around.
Put my thoughts down.
So I can remember.
Yet my whole mind sits.
In the cracks I retain, and someday will call upon these memories like raising the dead....
for the purpose of remembering.
Not like I can go back and change anything.
So why remember?
It wouldn't' be learning from my mistakes, only the mistakes people made to me. I f that makes any sense.
