Live
Fugitive!
Nearest relative.
We come close consecutive.
In light you appear dark, selective
and follow as disciple, protective.
In dark you flee being active,
Shadow sensitive,
Reactive.
Live!
Wow!
‘My shadow,
Come close and follow.’
May be long, short, wide, narrow,
As light with me be able to allow,
Sideways, back, front, diagonal below.
It will flee as dark will grow.
Light and dark play so,
come and go.
Wow!
Thrive!
Fugitive!
Since I am alive.
In bright light you will survive.
You are ready to flee, I believe,
waiting for dark to bid bye and leave.
Hide and seek in day and eve.
Dark makes you passive.
Fugitive!
Thrive!
