Do they know your shadow?

If no one knows your shadow. 
If no one knows your cry when the lights are out and it's ohso quiet. 
If no one has ever seen the rainstorms on your cheeks,
because they only show when it rains outside.
It's the rain you say - I never cry.

Then no one really knows you.

And they can't love you, if they don't know you, for who you are
 and because of and in spite of.

Who knows your shadow? 

I love this quote by Marianne Williamson 
 - it reminds me that only the weak think they are strong. Or in other words: the stronger you are, the weaker you were. Through suffering came perseverance.
