Ebony shadow (Free verse) by Twiggy77
My shadow seems darker than ever before
A face-less mime-artist, in ebony clothes
Eternally sentanced to mimic it's host
Enslaved throughout life to return as my ghost
If darkness could speak, my shadow would scream
As it repeats the demeanour of pathetic routines
My mirrored accomplice impossibly seems
To live at my side, but haunt me in dreams
The lessons of life have taught us to hate
We've kept pace with pain, but love's running late
Escaping the world with the drugs that we take
My shadow of morals questions my fate
