A shadow

I am your shadow, I will always be with you.

I am a shadow, 

I am always at your feet 

following your every move. 

A spear of light beams from my core. 

I am a soul without a bag, 

without a casing,

or clothing of skin. 

I am without bone and rine 

no mass, 

no base, 

no skin to call my own. 

Nothing but a shadow I am, 

like smoke, 

like ash,

like dust I am. 

I was forgotten over time,

I became dust in the wind 

blowing through the hourglass of life.  

I'm nothing but a shadow

a wisp of smoke,

a luminous cloud black and heavy. 

A shadow that's what I am.
