Like Shadows On a Wall
Like Shadows on a Wall
By Elton Camp
Their shapes and sizes we know
But few of the details, though
The shadows we see move about
The substances is there, no doubt
People dance through life, hidden
Access to their hearts is forbidden
We mustn’t reveal what is inside
That, once told, cannot be denied
Thoughts and feels we don’t dare
With any other people to share
Death comes and takes us away
Forever safe our secrets will stay
