I’m like a shadow
Hiding in corner
Unseen, by everyone around
I prefer to be silent
Like the moon, on a moonless night
Uneasy
When I get attention

She’s like the Sun
Adored by everyone
Everyone’s friend
She’s the centre of crowd
She can speak into the void
Can break an awkward silence
Apple of the teacher’s eye

But I’m not jealous
I admire her
Her leadership
Her way of making people feel free
And her humility

She can talk to me
I do not know how we get along
But we do
I make her laugh
She makes me smile
We are the best of friends
