Many people crave and carve careers but, when they want a life, they find themselves LOST!

Casting Shadows
Light deflects, holds, surrounds me
casting a stalker shadow
who, I pretend, is family.
I'm forced to choose the 'sun' side
to keep her happy, content.
She's slimmer, bolder and tall--
my shadow upon the wall.
Kissed by light, she's everywhere
following ... can't/won't stop her.
Without her I am lonely,
drown in my own misery.
Let her stick, hide, by my side
as others Z O O M on past me.
She reflects quite pleasantly.
Invisibles tend to slide--
not casting ANY shadows--
alone, blanketed in dark.
A network, quilt, of parties
keeps insanity at bay.
Casting shadows, careened through life,
would've preferred titles: Mom, Wife.
This is a master piece of emotional tug and take. Yes the lonliness of a single sometimes brings the brunt of what if but then again looking back through the eyes of the mother and wife you may hear the words...dam I would kill for ten minutes to call my own...
