I stand alone – a shadow.
Upturned bottle to shaded lips.

Riding our lives
In all directions
Coping with daily
Intersections.

He stands alone – an outline.
Even his shadow has left him.

We don’t savour every breath
Batting rejections
Sliding to death
Oblivious to resurrections.

Lonesome silhouette
Dissects life without guilt.

Sunny days, dark days
Up times, down times
Common termination
As the vine climbs.

Friendless hero outline
Hums a mantra to the accompaniment of silence.

We share a universal path
A universal conclusion
Enjoying lifehood, lifeblood
A brotherhood of fusion.

And the shadow sloops away
This shadow has no light no day.

Innocent we walk
Breathing, living, loving, life’s emotions.
Sharing a hidden zest,
With singular devotions.

Shadow morphs to darkness
Hero to no one, nowhere, in no time.
