Another Poem
Shadow

You, my shifty companion
Are the other side of me
You are my reflection when
There is no mirror
You are my echo when
There is no sound
I cannot smell you
To taste would say nothing
For you are always changing
Your texture, your color,
It hardly stays the same
Dawn thinks you're squat
June's light shows you stretched and long

You're a scared little thing
Hiding from a storm's thundering
You're a dreamer, though
Sometimes fading into another world
But you can also be brave
Boldly strutting your stuff,
Defying the very sun overhead
But ib any state
In mood
You are just right, however you are
For you, my shifty companion
Are the other side of me

    I like it. It is very good and descriptive. You are a WAY better poet I am

    I like this. It's a wonderful concept, but I've seen your writing style change (and in my opinion, improve) over time. I suggest taking some phrases and rewriting them because they don't really fit with the image you're giving off. You used some slang that took away from the entire poem, and made it seem off, but that was minimal.

    Overall, excellent job, darling. Keep up the good work. ~Hikari_K

    Alright, the first two red is slang and I think you should change it. The third is simply a typo, methinks.
