Shadows

Emotionless existence,
They wander where we wander,
A cold follow.
Transcending the human mind,
A single dimension.

Fallen forever,
Pushed against boundaries,
Yet they do not deter.
Amongst many yet friendless,
An unknown purpose.

They speak! Yes!
A subtle voice,
Reaching dead ground and deaf wall.
Omnipresent...
Omniscient...

Habitual dark miming,
A mimicry not replicable,
The only lasting companion.
Listening to your every word,
Yet going unheard.

Sitting beside on a seat unseen,
Walking your every mile,
Living where one does reside.
While you slumber on beside them,
With determined patience they lay awake...
Waiting...
