goliath’s son

your gigantic shadow 

creeps into the light of my fire

baring the same flame 

yours burning brighter 

mine, self-extinguishing 

before it can catch 

stuck in the muddy footstep 

of the one before me 

trying to keep up

instead, sinking in 

it is my blood

and yet i do not bleed

stare up at the blinding sun

show me the way with your light

that burns my eyes
