Free Flow Friday

I knew you were following me but the mysterious enigma of my day

was every time I turned around you were not there.

But every time I looked at the wall beside me there your shadow was and

as I picked up my pace that today.

Nothing I did got me away from you and the chase continued even as I begun to panic

you were there running along side of me even when there was nothing to cased a shadow.

You were there and as I finally got home and was inside, I saw no more of you that night

until I went to bed and turned off the light and there on my ceiling you were the shadow that hunts me.

Day and night and no matter where I go you are there along side my shadow as if you have found a friend in me.

I’m high up and I’m not letting you bring me down.

Looking over it all and I realize all the small things

Aren’t so big right now.

I’m standing tall and I  don’t need to stay up here forever,

Because I’m not afraid to come down anymore.

For I can  stand up and I’m not alone anymore and

Maybe I never was.

But  couldn’t see it because I locked myself up for

I thought I was alone.

So when things got bad I would climb up to that place

No one could reach me.

And kept it all to myself, hoping one day it would be better.
