LAMENT OF A SHADOW

I am your Shadow
Still am and always was
Near hill, valley or meadow
Never for me did you pause

Oftentimes you have spun around
As if my presence you felt
But then you frowned
As no tangible being behind you dwelt

Our fingers touch
And eventho' of you I am a part
They do not meet as such
We stand so close yet are so far apart

Two halves we are of one
I do declare
Like yin and yang
Chinese symbols of yore

I am your Shadow
In me do you dwell
And from you I flow
And never can we bid each other farewell.
