Shadow

I've watched you from afar, I see you.. Wherever you are. I've watched you laugh and I've watched you cry, But I'm not here, yet I don't know why. I have no memory, no thoughts of my own, No idea where I called my home. I just have a feeling, a longing inside. That keeps me close and by your side. Sometimes you talk to me, I know it's true, I just wish that I could reply to you. One day your heart will say goodbye, And I will likely return to the sky. For now I'm with you, holding on, Helping you deal, helping you be strong. I wish I could hold you, say it's alright, Not knowing you watched me lose my fight.
