Hello Shadow

Hello shadow,
Remember me?
I tried to find you when I was three
I looked again when I was five
I knew somehow you were alive
When I was ten I’d talk to you
I called you God because then I knew
the love that I was feeling inside
was also in the earth and sky
I felt you in the tree I climbed
I heard you in the bell that chimed
I saw you in the beggar's smile
the wind, the rain ...and all the while
people kept on telling me
that God came in a box of 3
somehow I always knew in my heart
you were playing a bigger part
that you were the presence inside of me
and everything else that I could see

Hello shadow
You remember me
I’ve made a new discovery
each breath I take, to clear a space,
You’re sitting there, right with me
for every moment I thought alone
you've watched each moment and always known

Hello shadow
you know me
You were always in the mystery
