The Shadow

My Shadow is following me behind
With every move left or right she slowly peeks
Sometimes she tickles my mind to find
How she loves to play hide and seek

I see her in every pieces of art
Playing around the object's form
I try to touch her swaying part
Unbelievable Shadowgraphy I perform

Under the hot weather ,I rely on her touch
Where she comes to my defense
As each day under the morning sun
This lady shadows my presence
