You Cant Get Rid of Your Shadow

You cant get rid of your shadow 

Its always there on the wall

The movement of sunlight makes it flow

It dances whenever you call

It rises forever in the daybreak

Gripping every corners edge

Sets in the sundown of its wake

Finding us in every slope and ledge

We always look behind us 

To catch a glimpse of its cover

But when we cant see there is no fuss

For in our hearts we know it will always hover
