Aug 2014
I saw you in the moonlight
That day you were smiling
Glooming thoughts floated around my arm
I returned to you
But it wasn't you
It was your shadow

Your shadow looks at mine and says
"If I could be anything, I would be candied cherries on top of your dreams"

I fell
I fell
I fell

In love

Not with you but with my shadow
I forgot what I looked like

I saw my own beauty hidden under my other arm

I placed my arms to the sky
Looked up and quietly kissed you goodbye.

The end.
