THE SHADOW

THE SHADOW

You never leave my side, may it be the day or night,
Even if you're strengthened or weakened by light.
Left out in the maze, I don't know you're a friend or foe,
Obeying or afraid of light, you move from high to low.

Had I been so lonely, but you were there by my side,
Afraid of the ghosts was I, yet freaked out by your shade.
You walk along my paths sometimes even ahead,
Stamped out by my feet, but left no words shed.

I'll fight the light forever and let you take the life,
But I'm not sure of you, a golden ring or a knife.
And I swear I can't live atleast a minute without you,
I feel that I'm all alone, as you're a part of me too.

Are you my dear one, or a breathtaking companion?
Afraid of you, I sail the oceans to islands to land upon,
I try to erase you, but you surround me with more of you,
I'm in pandemonium, and awaiting for a little clue.
