The Shadow

by Pauly D.   Apr 27, 2004


The time I had that day,
Nothing could have went wrong.
It felt like the world was melting around me,
The emotions stirring were strong.

The time, it seemed, was going so fast,
I couldn't even say where it's gone.
My mind had forgot, It was right I thought,
I just wanted it to keep going on.

But then I got stuck,
A shadow was amuck.
Complicating every move,
Unable to find a groove.

Like that big, shadowy figure,
You can't do what seems right.
Because if you do,
It might unleash it's smite.

But if the notions agree,
And there's no shadow around to stop it,
Then fate will befall, at nature's call
And things will be right back on top.
