I like how open-ended the story was, how it was set up and had such an ethereal theme about it, how smooth the animation was. I think the shadow that was dancing with the girl was either her loneliness, or some other person, entitiy, or thing that she desperately wanted to get away from, but she doesn't know how to be happy without. I can relate to being lonely, I only had one or two friends in junior high, and both lived far enough away it was nearly impossible to contact each other without our phones, which due to our very strict parents we did not use much. I wanted to make new friends, but all of the other people around my age at the school had already formed very tight groups of friends, and as I quickly discovered, none of which I was at all welcome in. I decided that if I couldn't have friends at school, then i would just try to be happy on my own, metaphorically "flying solo". my social life, even outside of school, diminished more and more the more I convinced myself that loneliness was the only way to get through school at least until I graduated. it was strange; I wanted friends, I wanted a social life, but loneliness told me that trying to be friendly towards people would only bring me more disappointment and would be worth nothing. since then, I graduated and now have a fair social life, albeit it could be improved upon, but loneliness still lingers like a scar, like a stain on my heart that will always be there, and will shrink as time goes on, but will never completely go away. then again, I guess most emotional wounds work like that.
