Corona Times - Shadow

 




Shadow: 

Who are you, my friend?

Tiptoeing behind... no soul, nobody

I have seen many with empty souls

But no one like you

You get shorter, then longer and then you disappear

You follow me, then you lead me

I tried to talk, but in vain

Who are you, my friend?

I wonder why you follow me and what you want

Are you here to steal my thoughts and memories?

That’s all I have to offer and no one would ever want those

I too am like you, dark and empty

Just want to tell you that the darkness that cast on you is of that light and not from me

You can be with me, but I have nothing to offer

Just my empty thoughts and lost memories
