Shades

In the spotlight we all shine so bright
But each light casts shadows in the night

In daylight's glow, veils we wear so well
But in the shade true tales we tell

How sweet are the wins, but bittersweet taste
Every step forward we stumble and face

We strive for light but shadows remain
In life's shades, we learn from the pain

Wading through shades in light's balance and fade
every mark we've made we paint our stories
Through the highs and the lows
In the shadows our true self shows
