walking past my shadow

I'm looking down at my shadow, but im wondering if it is looking back at me

trying to figure out if it is the outer part of my inner being

see, some of us use recreationals to run away from ourselves

looking like monsters that have a softer side after crossing the mirror line...

 

Running away from your shadow is like trying to escape yourself

And its sad, bacause you can never change who you are on earth

And i believe, the only reason why THE ALMIGHTY does not judge us upon our elemental cridentials

is because he knew exactly who we werre even before birth

 

Yet, i still want to walk past my shadow

im wondering: If i decided to ignore it

would it turn its back on me too?

we like doing our things in the night, yet we we call ourselves children of the sun

And yet again i wonder: If this shadow is actually my conscience

My constant reminderthat i have flaws where i thought i was flawless

A reminder that i am imperfect even though i consider myself to be perfect?

..And its strange, that it only comes out around a luminous being

But i want to know:

Would i still see it if i came too close to the light?

would it burn if i were to catch fire?

or would there still be a shadow when my body is burned down to ashes?

And i hate to say experience is my teacher

but i have seen shadows on corpses and coffins  Then if i may ask...what is the actual purpose of this shadow?
