Shadow

Shana

I am a shadow.
Lost within a world filled with others.

I am a shadow
I am there but barely noticeable.

I am a shadow
Only visable in the brightest moments.

But a shadow disappeared at dark times.

Not because the shadow wants to but because it has to in order to cope with the pain.

The shadow doesn't want to go but the shadow must as the pain will never end.

The shadow doesn't want to go but it cant cope with the agony.

The shadow doesn't want to go but in the end it has to.

Goodbye shadow.

A shadow however, returns when the world is a brighter place.

    Brilliant, may we raise our inner lights so shadow's can dance all night.

      Yes and let the shadows live on.

        That ending got me, wonderful job!

        • Shana

          Thank you I wanted a more lighter ending to this poem for contrast.

        • (That\'s all I\'m Telling You)

          I really liked the repetitiveness of:
          I am A shadow

          • Shana

            Thank you!
