Completely surrounded I ... disappeared.

Completely surrounded I ... disappeared.

A Poem by andrew mitchell

Completely surrounded I.... disappeared.
Of all the times
I switched on
my light
I was left
in the cold, still.
Their darkness
was bigger...
Lost...
I faded.

Yes, just as alone is so much more alone in a crowd, so do shadows and loneliness have layers and levels. The trick i to let your inner light, independent of all, even you, shine so bright that any shadow will pale and you cannot fade.
I always have such delicious anticipation when I approach one of your poems. I never know what to expect, and this I love.

You got it amy !!! there are levels and layers. Thank you for you review and lovely words:)
Quite different from your usual self, this is.
Umbra and shadows are more oppressive than we would like to admit.
Some literal, and others not so literal.
Thanks for the share, Andrew.
