Mi Sombra

Here's what I feel today...


Mi Sombra

Hush my child,
Do not cry.
For I am here.

You are never alone,
For I'm always near.

When your sun shines,
I share in your joy.
When your sky rains,
I share in your void.

I dance when you dance.
I cry when you cry.

I stay silent
So I can listen to your stories.
I shelter you
From your worries.

What more do you want?
I will never part your side.
You are my master.
Please confide!

I will suffer for your sins in the fires of hell.
I will keep your secrets - will never tell.

Give me your love from above.
Look down on me and you will see.
I've been knealing by your knee.

I am your match made in heaven.
I was in your school play when you were seven.

I was there when you became a man.
We are on common ground, where we stand.

Can't you see?
We are meant to be.

"But-- you are my sombra."
"You can -never- be."

"Sombra" is the spanish word for "shadow".
