The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge, and it therefore, as a rule, meets with considerable resistance. Indeed, self-knowledge as a psychotherapeutic measure frequently requires much painstaking work extending over a long period.
C.G. Jung

Because we
Hoping for something more
Hoping for something else
Me, you seeing me this time

Seeker,
The voice, is esoteric.
Many listen, few hear.

Beware:
That and They which giveth light,
shall at once produce shadows that fright.

You’ve been warned.

“Mummies and madmen grow dark in the sun—You, too.”
Schizophrenic patient "F'", 1942

I’m not there
It’s empty now
When you get what you crave
And throw it out
So much care
A heavy sound
Yeah, it darkens the way
I hear you now
