Shadow
He walks in shadows as part of the night
He becomes whatever to blend in
You cannot always see him, but he is there.
watching, learning, hoping,
for one glimpse into your life
to be part of your life
You are all he ever wants,
but the you he wants you to be
not the you that you really are
He stumbles quietly, whispering words
sneaking past the shadows
becoming part of the trees
becoming part of the wind
You cannot see him, but he is there
watching, learning, hoping
to have you all to himself
to make you who he wants you to be
to be something, everything
in your life
he walks with the shadows
in the night
in the day
watching, learning, hoping,
wishing, planning, obsessing
