Shadows
A silent dark figure
That follows you wherever you may go
Creeping silently
Diligently
Purposefully
Never wanders
Never strays
Never changing
The long dark figure
Ever following
Never leading
Engaged in a continuous march
It mirrors your every step
Movement
Breath
And yet it cannot speak
Or hear
Think
Act out movements of its very own
A mime forevermore.
