Shadow Dancing

You've always
been with me
and you always
will be


My lifelong companion
through all the
trials and tribulations
of this life so rocky

You hold on steadfastly

Never abandoning me

I know you are there
even when I can not see
your calm silhouette

My silent friend

Who never complains
or sits in judgement

A constant reassuring
presence
wherever I go


I can always count on you

My reliable shadow
