The Glass Shadow

Brycycle

It follows you everywhere,

Through day and night.

 

At day it's dark,

Through nightfall it's whiter than white.

 

Seeing your every move,

Memorizing the unforgettable.

 

The glass shadow,

Only to you is accessible.

 

You can never be too private,

Because it will always remind you in quiet.

  • Comment from author about the poem: The Glass Shadow is a metaphor for your mind, you and it always know what you have done. You can't run away from it because it will always be there, you can only confront whatever you have done. And admit or come to terms with it. --Sorry it's a little short.

            Never apologise for the short ones - sometimes I think the short ones are the best. Certainly mine get shorter by the day. This is a great poem B.
