If I die before you do
my shadow will always follow you
the day I'll leave this world
it will be my shadow to get in your arms, curled
when you'll cry, being alone and become colder
secretly my shadow will offer you shoulder
when you'll feel sad looking at your empty hand
my shadow will exist to embrace it, passing softly like sand
when you'll lie on your bed alone,
my shadow will act as my clone
when you'll have no one to kiss,
you'll find my shadow quietly touch your lips
when you'll walk streets on your own,
my impression, my shadow will be besides your bone
when you'll have no one to hear,
don't quit speaking, my shadow will be there to bear
when you'll find no one to tease,
my shadow will tickle you and put you at ease
when you'll find no one to run hands through your hair,
my shadow will send the wind to dare
when you'd want to see me, my king!,
Just look into the mirror, within yourself you'll find my being
when you'll find nobody for you to care,
don't you worry, my shadow will be responsible and that''ll be fair
when you won't be able to sleep,
my shadow will sing lullaby and touch you deep
when you'll howl immense pain,
my shadow will shower on you our drops of rain
when you'd want my body to stay with you in your tomb,
my shadow will take rebirth as your daughter, from your life partner's womb
as long as you'll need me, my shadow will be with you,
when you'll forget me, my shadow will watch you from a distant view
even after yonks, when you'll peek back in your life to our page
you'll find my shadow still trapped in your love's cage...........................
