my life's interesting, growing, shrinking, hiding-
a whole world to flow into, moving without friction;
those rays of life, forever hidden, mock from edges
-thats why they tire everyday, and surrender to my vices;
i find my shadow sitting, drooping, ready to die-i pity him
he has lost all mirth, i try to amuse him, changing tones,
but he rarely notices, my existence, my loyalty, my love,
he doesn't feel my touch, doesn't dance to my tunes of winds;
i wish to die with him, be locked in coffin, and not be able
to be lured by my vices at the dead of the night.
