The Shadow Behind Me

by Steven   Apr 17, 2014


Call it crazy
or maybe a unknown feeling
I walk these streets
watching memories replay itself
every step I remember someone
each corner of the world I see myself again
call it happiness
or even painful memories
the shadow of me
is more than just something science explains
maybe I'm haunted
or even being trapped
the shadow of me isn't really me
believe it or not
it might just be "you"

A girl that i have yet to meet
or even know
a girl that i might not understand
or even love
you follow me behind
from my past to present
from future and forever more
the shadow is the girl I once knew
tailing me and grasping my mind and soul
chasing others away from me
just so i wouldn't learn to care
or even forget

The shadow might just be the girl I dream about
standing behind me
whenever I feel lonely
smiling and laughing at the things i do
The other partner in crime that i always desire
I'm trying to catch her
but forever she will always be unseen by me

This shadow that follows me where I go
whoever you might be
please let me just be in peace
I just want to forget these regrets
I just want to let go of these feelings
I just don't want to be alone anymore
Even if you will never hear me or understand me
I'll always be your shadow that follows you
when the day i can finally let go of her
and embrace the one that is standing behind me
with truth and honesty
I'll be alone.... With you watching over me
