stuck in your shadow

I tried to bury myself in you, 
tried to hide behind your shadow and 
live in the window of your desire
i hoped you could still see me there 
maybe I hoped you would want more of me
not just what lays underneath you or 
what your body is able to hold 
or what my body is able to give
but when I tried to give you more 
you didnt seem to take it

now that Im out of your shadow

I'm stuck in that grief that haunts me 
knowing that i had to be less for you 
in order for you to want me
