My Shadow

My Shadow

A Poem by Katie Snyder
"

song i found in my jeans pocket

"

Hidden within my thoughts

In the shelter of the night

 

No one to stop me

To cancel my own flight


The only one to follow,

Is my own shadow

 

A million thoughts or so, and not one of them makes sense

Cant decide what and when is important

Past, present, or future tense

What a shame?
Am I already losin' this game?
I need to go....

Just me and my shadow.

 

I gotta get out of what people are saying

And make up my own mind

 

No one cares so I got no one to stop me

Or keep me behind

 

No one's behind-

Except for my shadow

 

A million thoughts or so, and not one of them makes sense

Cant decide what and when is important

Past, present, or future tense

What a shame?
Am I already losin' this game?
I need to go....

Just me and my shadow.

 

Time seems to be running out

The clock keeps ticking

Not wanting the obvious finish

But hard to remember the beginning

No true- value

In this lonely world I seem to be alone

Except for my shadow


Oh-h-h

 

No where to go.

No where to be.

Won't someone care? Please, listen to me
