Shadow

I am your shadow
I creep in darkness until you
                                               illuminate

my hiding places
my secret
                                               corners

ripping away my cover
tearing off my disguise
and
                                              exposing

my darkest weaknesses
my inner callings
my angels and 
                                              demons

You hold my being
in your grip
you vow to
                                            give me

up, like I'm your latest
addiction, your heroine
in this story
your chance to get
                                            away....
