The Shadow just went along for the ride
It barely made judgement, it never did hide
It just followed and went where it was destined to go
Picked up belongings, watched the grass grow
The Shadow now felt it was not liking what it saw
It felt so lonely ~ It's heart was raw
The Shadow had walked a million miles in these shoes
Yet it now Knew it needed another path to undo
To undo just where he was standing and now where to go?
He just wants to follow the simple things from what he now knows
You are just a shadow.... Until you fit your own shoe
Some fit at once... yet so many never do
So explore and seek comfort in your life each day
We all have a shadow that we hope will stay

Like or not - shadow will remain & we're to move managing it......... well written
All shadows are sly so to say At night as we turn in, they slink away To their own dark affairs before it again a day And they like slaves have to accompany us again...... (good poem sir and welcome to my page)
Oh! We all have a dark side of the moon! ! ! ! ! That is balance in life. Goods and bad moments inside us. But we can always walk with our own shoes. Love that Poetess! ! !
