Shadow is the sunshine's little sister.

Shadow sneaks around and trails behind, sometimes peaking around to see what you're doing.

Shadow follows and will only go out of sight when the storm breathes down your neck.

Shadow will cool you when the sun becomes too strong to bear.

Shadow grows as you grow, proving that you're never alone.

Shadow will reappear with the faintest of light in the darkness to reassure you that you're never alone.

Shadow will remain with you until your time becomes a memory.
