My shadow
My shadow follows me everywhere
I am starting to have despair
It follows me day and night
When I try to fight
It doesn’t even speak
But I know he’s really weak
I’m pretty sure it has a quest
To make me fail on my tests
That’s why I always get F’
I wish I could get straight A’s
But that’s only a praise
From lands far and thro
It always seems to know
