Shadow Dance

I dim the lights to a flicker, For the shadows beg to dance; Ive always been a sucker, for a midnight shadow romance. Glimmering silver moonbeams, trickle through these dusty shades; The spotlight awakens this hollow room, Yes it's shadows on parade. The shadows never argue, nor do their feet get sore; And shadows always answer , every time I ask for more. Shadows keep my secrets, all that I hold so dear; And shadows never gossip, no matter what they hear. My shadows are good listeners, whenever I feel blue; They sit with me til the sun comes up, and always see me through. Shadows catch my teardrops, before they ever hit the floor; and turn them into waterfalls , to wash away whats sore. Yes the shadows are to me, my closest, faithful friends; And although it is unspoken, I know they will love me to the end.
