~Shadow~

There is a shadow that follows me around.

Another side of me that is rarely found.

It is the deeper side,

the truer side of myself.

It hides behind the person that is 

"me"

to everyone else.

Everyone has their secret shadow.

The one they never show,

 hidden behind a fake smile,

 trying to make

 their shadow go.

But shadows can not disappear, 

they can never go that far.

They stay with you,

hoping,

you will be who you really are.
