In the dark corners

Daniel

As we hide in dark corners
Far from warmth and light
We speak only in whispers
Hidden from prying sight

Anonymity a skill we've learnt
We leave no footsteps to follow
Never Seen and never heard
There is a comfort in our sorrow

Please do not try to shine a light
We do not look for rescue
We do not need your judging sight
We do not need your refuge

Out of sight and out of mind
Acts as our badge of honour
And every scar acts to remind
Why we hide in the dark corners

          Thanks for sharing DANIEL ~ we can all empathise ! Some days the best place is out of sight and out of mind ! I go to my potting shed on my allotment (vegetable plot) and lock the door and meditate ! Where do you go ? Yours BRIAN
