Me and My Shadow

I spoke to my shadow,
My other self,
About days that came and went.
We spoke of loves, 
We spoke of lives,
That passed us
In our sleep.
We laughed at moments,
Our childish ways,
Long lost,
In the fog of haste.
I took his hand,
Held it close,
And smiled.
We walked a while,
Under sun and sky,
remembering…
What was me.
