my shadow

the shadow on the wall
looks so small
in the dim light

the darkness that surrounds
my soul this night
cannot be lit

or can it?

the Love breaks through
through all the dark
through all the pain
through all the heartache
through all that remains

His love
can change all
can make the shadow tall
can make the shadow not a shadow
but a reflection
of the Love
that shines
from the Light

so when people see
they don't see me
they don't see my shadow
they instead see Him
as my shadow becomes His
