Shadow

(Fourth Season)

All alone at the end of the day
Not in the mood to go out
His body was tired
His mind exhausted
His thoughts were going round in circles

All alone at the end of the day
Not in the mood for his best friend
Not in the mood for anything lately

The mirror showed empty eyes
in a tired face that was his own

All alone at the end of the day
He sat down and stared
It was a disillusioned stare
One that had seen too much

The white knight in shining armor
had disappeared

All that remained was his shadow

THE END
