conversation with my shadow

You are so similar to me,

you tag behind or never leave a side

You hide when night approaches,

and appear when the sun shines

I tried to shake you off,

I tried to cut you free

I hope you don't mind being chained to me,

I know it can be lonely.

To be honest, I enjoy your company

We're best buddies, so similar

We do things together, inseparable

You're my day walk company,

who follows me quietly.

My companion as I voice my thoughts out

loud.

You don't judge or laugh,

and you'll be there all day long.

But why am I talking to my shadow,

if you are me?
