shadows

it's an inch of my skin
to your skin, a beat of my heart
to your name, and i wonder
how closely i could have fallen
for you when you are not of the world,
but my own, all alone

that you're nowhere else you could be,
but my heart, and i could always
take a step backwards, return
to myself and dream of you
in a different dream, another place
not my own, in my own time, you and i

all alone, always, these times

A very nice poem, Steph.

An interesting concept.....of being one with our shadow, yet both us and our shadows being alone, on our own.
A very original idea.
Well written as always, thought provoking with a deeper internal meaning.

Keep them coming.

The cafe is quiet tonight, not much reading/ reviewing happening. It will pick up. Don't be disheartened. It happens from time to time.
