ryan obrien - my shadow

I have a little shadow that
goes in and out with me
and what can be the use of him
is more than i can see
he is very very like me
from the heels up to the head
and i see him jump before me
when i jump into my bed
the funniest thing about him
is the way he likes to grow
not at all like proper children
which is always very slow.
