The Shadow I Follow

You tell me to be real But what's real to you? What does it mean To feel warm To feel loved To feel sure Sure that what I want to be Is what we are meant to be For I will only ever wish You to be you To allow me to breath Your essence To be mesmerized by Your journey Your lips Your touch Your spirit Even if I do not know My own Even if my journey is But a sample Of all the adventurers I have met All the loves that I have discovered Forgotten And Loved I work and I work To be prepared for the life I wish to give To lose myself in And Discover Alongside You You who remains without A name But whose shadow I follow Even in the dark
