S T Poet I do not know?

Shadow's Light

I stand facing you,
Everything I aspire to be.
In the shadows of your world,
In the light of reality.

And yet a figure so mysterious,
Your emotion has been crippled.
Your feelings are hidden,
Your indifference is showing.

I have seen you often,
In my times of need.
You have come to my rescue,
You have put me in danger.

My fascination remains,
With your adaptive faces.
Cool, calm, collected,
Confused, scared, alone.

I realise we are alike,
In thought and in action.
All this I realise,
As I stand facing you
