Your shadow

Why do you shadow me so
Towering over me constantly without consciousness
Like a haunting ghost
Disappearing when I look up

Running an endless circle
On white sands
Leaving footprints
To be devoured by the surrounding blackness

Given so much
Memories of nightmares
Being feasted from the inside
Of this immortal body

Death does not give its permission
And Life does not give up
Living in between
Hope and hopelessness
