Shadow
You fiend!
You make me worse than quarantine
Do you know what I have heard?
And what I have seen?
The evil, the mean
And If you with to put me down
If you wish to see me frown
You have to bother someone else today
Because I am here to stay.
You are but a shadow, a ghost, an illusion at the most
But I can boast…
That I am a rock full of caring and love.
So I will not do to you as you have done to me.
All I ask is you leave the presence of thee
And I won’t be getting down on my knees
So hark!
You Shadow of the dark.
Leave me for all eternity
