I am a stray cat nobody wants to feed –
I am an echo in the silence you create
with all the noise you make –
I am a shadow in the darkness of the night –
I am a planet knocked off course
and hidden from the light –
I am an epiphyte high on a branch, alone –
I am disguised to look like my surroundings,
so you pass me by, unknown –
I am an eye that follows you around –
I am a presence that you barely can detect,
a movement; subtle, slight
I am a shade dissolving in your light –
I am an echo in the silence you create
with all the noise you make –
