my shadow is your bridge

Stand on my shadow.
I bridge the gap,
I’ll be your border,
your river’s flow.
Stand on my shadow,
I promise you will find your way.

I am the breeze between heartbeats,
the breath before a name is spoken.
I hold your weight without breaking,
shape your silence into poetry.

I am invisible in daylight,
the chill beneath your feet,
a whisper that steadies your worries
when the road forgets where it leads.

I am not your light,
I am what lets you see it.
Not the storm,
but the shore that waits through it.

Stand on my shadow.
Let it carry your steps.
I’ll be the echo
of every bridge you cross.
