Essence of Soft Shadows- Contest
the essence of soft shadows cast up on my bedroom door every night
i am watching as the silhouette of your body moves so slowly
but yet so swift to leave
every night
the dark contour of your shape reminds me of what i have let drift away
as your outline reaches for the doorknob
it seems as if your figure gives one final stare
and walks out the doorway
every night
your shadow evokes every thought of you
and how you elapsed
from my grasp
