Shadows

To all my peers

who and who are not

Shadows

Yes, us, we are the ones

who walk in front of you in hallways;

You see through us.

We sit in front of you for hours;

you talk past us.

We consume whatever you put in front of us; 

we are hungry. 

We are why you are here; 

eager and prepared.

Tell us about life; 

the stars and the tragedies,

the winds and wonders. 

Share with us the shadows; 

the one you are hiding.

Walk and sit with us; 

teacher will you teach us?
