Shadow - Poem from 2020



 I'm a standing here waving


looking at you


in your direction


you can't see me swearing


I'm in pain


even my heart's burning


I'm always in your shadow


never enough to be seen


when your thoughts are on the others


and their problems and their dreams


my eyes are slowly hurting


as i turn to look away


not much left to keep on going


when it's them you seek to prey


left me here beside your shadow


left me out in all the rain


sullen i surrender to my grief


i walk away
