my shadow

 

 

my shadow is annoying

follows me everywhere I go

 

that is if the sun is shining

 

late evening my shadow gets elongated

and makes me look thin

 

at noon, my shadow becomes portly

 

the only shadow that delights me

is when I see your shadow enter my room

and float across my bed until the sun goes down.

 

I hold it until morning

when the sun can have you back again
