My shadow, how I wish I could get rid of you. Vestigial, dimensionless as you are, it is beyond belief how you are perpetually joined with me.How I hate you. In light you remind me of the darkness that can be. In the dark, you are everywhere. The umbilical gets severed, but not you, never you.
How I would love to see you in pain. I laugh that you can never live without me. How you want the candle wick, yet I can drag you away, whenever I want. When I would love, you would act in a B grade mime show behind me. You were cursed with immortality the moment I was born. I shall pass you on to the next glass eyed kid at my last street corner. Then I would fly away, while he would struggle and gasp carrying the shadows of all his ancestors.
