Shadow

What ever you do it is compelled to do too

                                   You stand it stands you bow it bows

                                               grow and it will grows

                                                   climb it climbs
               
                                       fall it falls but it can not go upon a wall

                                        It can not enter a dark room with you

                                      when darkness comes light has to go too

                                            Then there is nothing else to show

                                     Nothing can be seen not anything you can do

                                                 You go away it does to

                                                        This is true

                                               It is only a reflection of you
