A POEM A DAY 321

SHADOW

He is the shadow
From my past
That seems to come to light
Whenever I am
Sad or lonely 
Especially at night
Because he is the one
That got away
I love him
To this very day
I smile and I laugh
As I reminisce
I try not to cry
I try not to miss
But inevitably
My heart breaks in two
And I haven't a clue
How to mend
Or even bend
Time
If I could
I'd bring light to shadow
And the sun would shine
On this heart's fallow
