Shadow Dancing

Every day at 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. your shadow walks across my mind and settles down resting on my love. Awakening my mind’s activity to ensure you’ll never go away, never fade in the sunlight. We dance amongst the flowers and sleep in peaceful fields, we travel the world speaking more languages that I ever knew existed. As I return to the world outside your shadow, the sunlight removes you, drowning out your pattern, searing it into the walls of my brain.
