How can I see what lies beyond the waterfall? Is the sky actually blue behind the thick black clouds? Why is this road so hazy and indefinite? Why is the shadow always black even if there are colors on the inside? Does it reflect the inner ugliness or the beauty of universal unity? Does it really exist or is it just an uncertain imagination of my fading memory? Is it the memory or me that fades? Is this the last phase? Why cant I remember?
There is so much to recall. So much to live for. So much color - all over, all around and yet, the shadow remains black and eternally dark.
Seasons sigh me, years try me. Life is a fairy tale - this as well as that - abstract and dishonest. Death is authentic, tangible and trustworthy.
Today, no companion in sight. I fade alone ...........................................

A rush of words some joyful some dull ....
Seems like no incentive to choose bright colors Yet no rationale to choose the duller ones
Does the end make such a difference……….
Are shadows really a reflection ……
Is there not a light at the end of the tunnel and darkness all around…….
Does the end determine the journey or the journey determine the end………….
Some food for thought. Don’t dispel yours just process these
No companion in sight……Shadow is a constant companion ….. Not compelling enough maybe….. Is this a want or a whine

Smiley because it is too obvious - anonymous makes no difference.
Only one comment:
"Shadow is a constant companion". Not in the dark. Some food for thought there?
Is the reflection of the sight of such high importance to you? Shadow, does it not envelope and embrace you in the dark. Must your companion be a result of the sight, tangible .. Can it not be but just a sense, a feeling, a …..
Gratitude and Humility to be recognized as one of your own but nay, not been fortunately graced to have known yourself. Just Nobody Nowhere.

Interesting thought.
The shadow envelopes me and is my companion in the dark but the only feeling it brings is that of loneliness; the sense remains but the real beauty of the rose is defined only if you see it and smell it.

My words do not complain. They may reflect my feelings of not having, but also strengthen my belief of what I have.
Ah you seem to have misunderstood the last statement

All that was meant was you are not known to moi. You displayed a sense of recognition.
However, your reply is enchanting but blessed are you for the strength in your belief of what you have. Not all are so fortunate.....
"Ah you seem to have misunderstood the last statement"
I did. I am pleased however, that it did not go in vain as some positive understanding was established.

I am trying to get there. There is a long way to go. Realization is a journey not a destination and everyone is fortunate to have free will and a choice to choose. What is needed is to realize the destination and choose to implement free will (Intention here is not to mention it to you, but to myself because to me, this is another step towards the destination, another part of the journey covered) Appreciation once again for your comments for providing this realization.
