Shun me, hate me, despise me and hold me as far away as you can, yet ... you know I am here with you. I walk by your side, intruding on the light, pulling on your strings one tone at the time. I am what you can never leave, what you can never miss. For without pain, greed, desire .... you are not whole. You are but a shadow of a life. Controll me all you want, but know that I am here, waiting ...
