The Shadow Knows

The title is the soundtrack
Have a Happy New Year! 


Yes, you are tall

 But I come between
 You and the wall

 All you have is age
 But I make you sway
 I give you this page

 I give you contour
 I give you mystique
 And what is more

 I give us ego
 You give me substance
 And wherever we go 

 I am nothing without you

      Yours truly.

      The reason I didn't acknowledge
      the LCSoL copyright is because
      the poem's title is taken
      from a song.
