Hello Shadow!
Come play with me.
Come jump high and fly with me.
I surely hope that you can see
That you're the perfect friend for me.
Hello Shadow!
When you get tall,
Dancing up and down the wall
You mimic me when I fall
How could you have any flaw?
Hey Shadow.
Long time no see.
Ten years since you've played with me.
Since then I've become so empty.
Drowning in my sea of greed.
Go away, shadow.
You scare me now.
Every time I see you now.
Can't you hear me screaming now?
Can't you feel me bleeding now???
Dear Shadow:
I watch you dangle from the wall,
Swaying back and forth.
Damn this worthless life of mine
And damn this fucking cord.
I hope you're happy, shadow.
You won't go to hell.
There was nothing you could do,
I brought this on myself
Please tell me what you think

Acidic stuff, stranger. But it's no worse for the dark tone ...better, in fact. I like.

Interesting takes on something that has always been with us, should we venture into the light. But I do agree, there are times we get lost in those shadows! Enjoyed this write. Geo

Very sad. But I know that your shadow wouldn't let that happen.
