The one I thought I loved Had a shadow standing near, And when love seemed to have won That's when her shadow appeared. I never saw your shadow You were hidden from my view, At last I glimpsed your beauty, Then your shadow's all I knew. Clarity woke within me, Your sunlight touched my soul, I found comfort in your shadow And felt your shadow take control. Though a shadow has no light, No form that most can know, 'Twas in light I always suffered, Yet in your shadow I could grow. You're such a special shadow, With a warmth no light can feel, Now the light I cannot see, Yet your shadow I can't conceal. As I wander through my life, And witness beauty in all things, I have never seen such beauty, Like the beauty your shadow brings. When at last I touch the shadow, I feel its warm embrace, The light reveals the shadow, From the shadow comes your face. The shadow is diminished, The love you give is not, I only see the shadow now, For the light has been forgot. In another place called comfort, In another time called we, Is a place where I could love you, Where our shadows could be free, And will the day arrive When our shadows will combine, Who knows but maybe one day In that shadow you, I'll find. Poetry is just the evidence of life. |
