silhouette

it's always close to me
clung to my feet and my head..
when i ran away,
it never leaves..
instead, it came after me.
never fail.

it's always there
even though not always seen,
but when it makes an appearance,
it's bold.
a contrast to everything in my view.

it's a companion
who walks beside me,
when the dawn greets the day.
who covers me,
when the sun is too high above my head.
burning me to the core.

it's always close to me,
yet, i can never reach it.
i cannot even touch it,
to let it know, i appreciate its presence.

in how i see my world,
it belongs to me.
only me.
but, i can never hold it closer than it has already been.


a shadow,
that's what it is..

p.s: after so long not writing a poem. i sucked at it, i know.
