My shadow follows me
Listens to my whispers by lending a deaf ear
Its presence gives comfort
But its the absence I fear
Powerless to make it stay
At the same time it's me myself who pushes it away
The sun comes out and it's forced to stray
And completely vanishes when its' realized love is no longer child's play
I'm left dismayed shattered and afraid
Longing for a shadow that I can't even embrace
