Shadows are the ghosts of light,
They follow us both day and night,
A silhouette of what's behind,
A partner to our every stride.
Sometimes they're long, sometimes they're short,
They dance and move without a thought,
They play with shapes and bend the ground,
And in the dark, they can be found.
But shadows can be more than this, They can be a symbol of what we miss,
A reminder of what's left behind,
Of memories that still entwine.
So next time you see a shadow's form, Remember it's more than just a norm,
It's a reflection of what's inside,
Of the things we cannot hide.
