Shadow

I am a shadow
Vexed by my own transparency.
Oh! What I would give to be-
Someone that you always see.

In the night I am hidden.
By darkness, I'm forbidden
To speak my mind, to be alive.
In the day I am lost under feet
Stepped upon with hopeless defeat.

Emancipate me if you will!
I'm tired of this windowsill...
Observing the world and staying behind
But search for me- you cannot find.
For I am a shadow, concealed away.
It does not matter what I have to say.
