I have learned to walk in the dark house so well
See colors where there is only a void
Find beauty in the gloom.
Bend at the corners,
Stride with confidence in the long corridors
Avoid the depths of the abysm on the edge
Muffled in the comfort of silence
Invisible to those who are blind in the shadows
Untouchable to the owners of the light
Not only can I see through my dark,
I can also see through the obscurity of others
When they are most transparent
The hairline fractures of their souls
Clear to me in the reflections of this multicolor space
Their own demons staring at them from their own reflection
To those who do not acknowledge their own shade
I say, inhabit the infinity of darkness
And marvel
