Shadow

I’m just a shadow in the crowd...

No name, no face,

No footprints, no trace,

No core, mere surface,

Warping time, devouring space,

Wasting life, getting old...

Am I warm? Am I cold?

I’m just a shadow in the crowd...

Insignificant empty shell,

Whispering my spell,

Pushing my way through hell

Like a drying well

Abandoned to the arid desolation of a sandstorm… 

Am I cold? Am I warm?

I’m just a shadow in the crowd

No future, no past,

No first, no last,

No dreams to pursue,

No hint, no clue…

I’m just a shadow in the crowd,

The shadow that flows out of you.
