Fluorescent lights,
bright and unyielding.
Showering us in light,
illumintating our darkest secrets.
Pushing away the shadows,
we crave, we need.
Fluorescent lights,
bringing fake smiles, happy illuisons.
Shadows bring,
truth and harsh realities.
Lights and Shadows,
an on going war.
Truth and Illusion,
an on going struggle.
