Shadow of Life
"My shadow flirts with the sun"
and I caress the light
moving to and fro
dancing here I go
My shadow smiles
stealing a glimpse
into things hidden apart
a silhouette straight to heart
Secrets held with the night
an unseeable background take
feelings not faked
preluding permanent sight
"the shadow will soon fade"
but I know as with the sun
the two of us
will be reunited again
"" words of Arthur Vaso"" in quotes
