Shadowalker

Darkness has been the guide,
    Staying hidden from the light.
Finding shade to its comfort,
    Indistinguishable from the night.

Its reflection may be cast from
    A simple point to an ending long.
With a cooling disposition,
    Removing heat from the strong.

Often sharing an invincible background,
    To any shape or numerous form.
As it attaches to any mass and
    Avoids the harshest storm.

The cycle of time grants immortality,
    To the constant light where it renews.
Staying behind the walls of substance,
    Lurking to avoid all the views.
