Shadow
March 16, 2010 at 11:18 pm | Posted in Verses | 4 CommentsThere you stand so quiet
Always in your place
I’ve known you all my life
I’ve never seen your face
You follow me around
With me every day
When I turn to watch you
You merely look away
You’re such a faithful solider
You jump at my command
I reach into my pocket
You sacrifice your hand
As morning becomes midday
It is you I walk upon
You try to hide beneath my feet
Afraid to see the sun
Sometimes I don’t want you
But there you are again
I hate the way you mock me
Still, I like to have a friend
The light of day is waning
Its fading fingers stran to hold the sky.
At this time when I am smallest
You’ve grown to mammoth size
Twilight fades to darkness
Are you shrinking out of sight?
No, I am now the shadow
It is you who owns the night
Thank you sizicate
