My shadow, my friend

watching my shadow's pattern
chase me through the room
brings much joy

takes  time out of
finding a toy

it follows me here
it follows me there

it never gives up
only waxes and wanes

it never complains
or feels my pains

sticks with me
through thick
and thin

doesn't know how
to let me win

doesn't judge
and can't sin

gently shows
me who I am

lets me change
him at my whim

doesn't talk
when I sleep

never tells
the secrets I keep
