“If we are able to see our own shadow and can bear knowing about it, then a small part of the problem has been solved.” Carl Jung
There, In The Corner In the most darkest silence, when all is perfectly still and nothing cares to stir, I set my mind to free-range for a wander of my hidden self, a revealing place of tropes and troves beyond the dreams of famous writers, treasures of carefully filed vignettes, confessions of denial, secret gardens, Crimes and sorrows, it has the lot, and there in the corner in the haloed light of night's demise, I see a shade of shadow playing at my edges.

A very perceptive poem. Our shadow self can be an elusive thing.
