A Shadow

In this waking existence Where I merely reside I just exist A shadow of the light Out of sight Out of mind That is the reality of my life I merely exist To be seen To be invisible To be heard To be silenced I am all Yet I am nothing I merely reside in this existence With nothing to truly call my own I am just myself A shadow of the light
