Shadow Queen

Shadow Queen is a poem about a shy, quiet woman with low-esteem & a lack of confidence who stays so far in the background of life & a relationship that she loses her own identity & her own sense of who she is.


Poem Artwork

I've walked within your shadow
til I am a shadow dressed
In rivulets of tears and pain
like blood upon my breast.


I've walked within your shadow
til my spirit shrinks to fit
Nothing remains of what I was
just bones in a shadowy pit.


I've walked within your shadow
til I am a reflection of you
A cold impassive mirror
that no one can see through.


I've walked within your shadow
a phantom, seldom seen
Doomed to dwell in Shadowland
and rule as Shadow Queen.

A melancholy tone pervades this fine write. Although the experience is usually debilitating, there are times when being subjugated to a stronger personality can offer us the input we need to reap a harvest of insight and creative acumen.

Light and Wisdom ...
