PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

The shadow that’s’ besides me,

Is the darkest me of doubt,

Excepting that it follows me,

Knowing there’s no way out,

The light that brings the image,

A dark sheltered side of my form,

I glance upon it so briefly,

Till fear sends me rushing home,

If I could live in darkness,

Then no shadow would I cast,

But I know that I detest,

As I know that from my past,

I cannot live without the sun,

This cannot then ever become,

My shadow I’ll just let be,

So long as it bothers not me.
