Shadow in the Realms
Shadow in the realms
Moving around and around
Noticed I reflection of my own
Even my shadow could feel the sadness
In my heart
Seeing the beauty of the realm
Shadow in my heart
I ached in pain
Tears in my eyes
As I wanted to be
Lightness in the shadow
Beauty with brains
Devil in disguise
And stars in the space
As I roam around my realm
There I saw a bird in the cage
As I free the bird
It came and sit upon me
As I was her saviour
Or she would be deceased
As I roamed she roamed with me
We became friends who were lonely
In my realm
Of shadows and imagination
I roam around freely
Without any humans to be found
This is the realm I created
My own town
Kingdom I established
Kingdom of my own
I’m the owner
The one and only
As I live upon
