My Shadows

When I walk in the sun, it is right there next to me. She never left my side as she guided me in the light when I looked into my shadow. I see myself in her. She is warm to the touch. But her heart is as big as the sea. But she holds back everything. Only things keep her going. It is the love she has for her family. She knows she can be herself when she walks out of her shadows. But her shadows follow her everywhere. She knows she is not alone. The only time she was alone was when she walked in the dark. She waits for sunny days to come back. So she doesn't have to walk alone. My shadow is a big part of me. It guides me. I realized that my shadow was with me all the time because my shadow was me. I will protect my shadow. It is an image of me. We stand together side by side. I wonder if there are two of us. But in reality, there's only one us. It will always be me and my shadow walking together as one.
