Hang On To Your Shadow

 




I will not untie my shadow. Standing on the borderline of Neverland. 
  Missing my friends. Lobsang and Paddles. My aunts Carole and Pam.
My best friend taken too soon. Something I will never understand. 
  My dad reaching out to me in my dreams. I won't take his hand. 

I'll remain here for them awhile longer. Anchored by the moon.
   On my small piece of land. Nothing can be as it seems. 
What I do not fear makes me stronger. Until we grow out of room.
   We may need to move or stay planted firm as a rock.  

  While the universe comes to me. I can take it all in stride.
It can always get even worse. So just keep steady on this ride. 
    Remember time is motion. Seasons recede like the tide.  
  Stay true to the devotion that time is on our side.
