The Shadow Man

The man named shadow haunts each and every one of us
Keeping his distance at a time of success
He lays in wait for a single moment of failure
Appearing in many forms, there is no mere match
You cannot outrun, the Shadow Man

Self doubt and self pity is Shadow’s middle name
For he does not want you to know of his true nature
An entertainer, he puppets your hands to distraction
Playing games in order to lure the sensitive and vulnerable

In the darkness you cannot see him
He is invisible, he is the perfect assassin
In the light he sits back and relaxes, smiling
With the punch-line in one hand, and a knife in the other
