Answer:
Light hides me and darkness kills me. What am I?
I can be winding and I can be straight. I can be smooth and I can be rough. Sometimes both. I start out black but fade to brown. My favorite colors are yellow and white and I love stripes and dashed lines.
I fly away as soon as you set me loose. People around you may slowly move away once they sense my presence.
From house to house I go, sometimes narrow, sometimes wide. Whether there's rain or snow, I always stay outside. What am I?
Although a human shape I wear Mother I never had; And though no sense nor life I share in finest silks I'm clad. By every miss I'm valued much beloved and highly prized; still my cruel fate is such by boys I am often despised.
Brings the sky a lot closer.
