The Man and His Shadow

There's a man and his shadow They only lived for each other Not a single person other They did everything together No matter the weather Until the day he was dead The man's best friend The only person that he ever needed Just an image in his head There was a man and his shadow

Never was there a person who ended up with true happiness by being selfish! I enjoyed the personification of the shadow - almost symbolic of how that selfish nature is always there for you... but when you're gone he's gone too. No legacy being passed on.
