The Shapeshifter ~~~~

By Dark Chocolate

You find me in concrete cages,
you find me enveloped in bonding pages,
I see you in the wandering stages,
I see you want to be faded.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I mix and match with cigs and hash,       
you burn me to life, you make me feel light. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Every molecule of us shares solitude.
you chase me and I'm calling you.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'm the shapeshifter,
one who is reading it now,
gaze at this tale twister.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Guess who am I ?
Not the one who composed this
the I which told it.
You just saw me uniformly flowing 
within the structure.  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


For those who're still puzzled.
"YOU FIND ME IN THE PIPES"

              ~~  I ~~
