Shadow

Summary:

A shadow always trails behind you—in your light, in you heights, in all your moments of glory. But what if it could talk? What would it tell you?

Notes:

Thank you for reading this🩷
This one is my third poem.
It took me about half an hour to write this one.

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

You say I left you in your darkest time,
But you never saw how far I climb
To stay with you when troubles were rife
I've been with you for all of my life.

I stayed by your side when you stood in the light,
I watched you sparkle, proud at the sight
But when you cried in the dark, black room
I couldn't stay by when you drowned in gloom.

I know you always blamed me for that,
But you never thought, I too hated that.
When you were caught up in a lightless snare,
I wasn't alive, I couldn't be there.

You said you want me to stay far away,
But forgot I'm proof you're in the ray.
I can't stay with you through darkness,
But let me watch you in your starriness.
