Shadows

My time with you has been short yet sweet
Why do I feel this way about you?
The kindness and friendship you have shown me cannot be beat.
The way we feel we both see it’s true
Yet problems arise unsurpassable.

You look at me I look at you
I hold you close to me
You turn away with tears in your eyes
Turning away from our friendly ties.
You have fallen for me
But you know I have someone at my side

You fall away from me
Fading away like the night on a brand new day
Like a magnet that wants to get away,

You can’t be near me as a friend
You can’t shake this feeling
These emotions you can’t pretend

I tell you, you are like a shadow
You will always be here with me
Always connected throughout eternity

You are a friend I will always care about.
Even though we can’t be as one I will always be there
By your side like a shadow stroking your hair.

Though I may love somebody else,
You dwell in my heart and mind

You are still my shadow
And I will never forget about you
The kindness and friendship you have shown me cannot be beat
The kindness and friendship you have given me has made me complete.
