The Death of My Shadow
When Sunset appears and night falls
My shadow will disappear
Death will take my shadow away
We have walked through life together
From birth until death it has always been with me
We have made the same mistakes
We have loved together
This, My Shadow and me
The old one has succumb and now gone
Replacing the old with the new each day
Yet some only see the old one still following me
They only see the shadows of yesterday
The old shadow is gone and the new one is new
A new day has begun, with
My new shadow and me
