When It Get Dark

When it gets dark. When it get hard they say people leave you. They say it only when u are in light you get to see ur shadow. They say when u don't have one to hold just deep it in ur pocket. I don't know why things happen. Even the good people are shaken. But the bad ones have nine lives. No one is looking for their bounty, but when u so tall and strong people want to bring you down. When you going through hard times people u know never want to see you. They never even want to smell ur pef, they quickly pose busy or outing Not fair you only did right by them. So when it gets dark you only have to get stronger. Because ur shadow dint leave you, it over whelmed you. I say ur shadow is a reflection of ur opposite chasing after you when you are in light. If you are in a great light and then u see a shadow. If you walk it walks, if you move is moves but don't have the power to be dark enough to cover you, just waiting for u to fall. Those people you trust are like shadows. Those people u love are like shadows. They have been waiting to see you fall. Finally you did. You don't need multiple people when it gets dark, you don't need bunch of shadows either. You need just one lamp to find ur way back. Back to the light It fair when they are shadows they are dark and you can't see them in the dark. When u walk ur shadow walks behind you, but can't catch you yet. Try it, try to walk. Don't get mad at ur shadows, dont ask why it chasing you, just staty strong when it gets dark
