I am a shadow. You walk through me.

Shadows cannot be a part of the world they see.

I'm always following a step behind, but

I would rather walk beside.

I do not need to hide to not be seen;

You see through me.

Perhaps you know this shadow's dream.

Perhaps you know what it can mean.

If so you do not want a shadow,

For you flee me wherever you go.
