I Am A Shadow

By shadowwv

I do not cast a shadow.
I am a shadow.
Touching but not touched.
Grasping but not grasped.
Giving warmth but not warmed.
Wanting but not wanted.
Desiring but not desired.
Loving but not loved.
Seeing but not seen.
Ignored in the light of day.
Not noticed in the night.
I do not cast a shadow.
I am a shadow.
