The Life of a Shadow

I watch you as you start to slumber anticipating the moment when I can detatch myself from you. When you drift off into a dream I become free to be who I am no longer forced to mimic your every move. Free to run and jump or just sit still, For a short while I'm allowed to Make my own choices And although that may not seem like much to you I t's the only thing that keeps me going strong
