She Is Your Shadow

My reflection being light and carefree, bright like the sun- possibly as this is a part of me however- you don’t see To know you then, be a part of your ever after pressing your name to mine in poetic rhyme, tracing “The Sound of Music” upon your skin, lost in the melody My heart could love you - now Perhaps, if things were different you- could love me, in our reality . . Clouds would subside allowing me inside Yet, in this reality: Your eyes shine guiding the way, she follows closely She is Your Shadow - and I am not her __________________ ~ Just a little scribble ~ Thoughts from the heart

Being someone's shadow means you're inseparable. Such a wonderful thing, when you're in love and it's forever. When you're not following close behind, because someone else is- emotions certainly linger within. There's an empty feeling inside. Thank you Joseph, for your lovely comment. My best to you. Hugs, Brandy

Yes, you understand the thing...but here on earth it could be just the warmth of your skin or the kiss of your lips... that makes a moment worthwhile....

True. Sometimes, a touch can express so much. A moment held between two hearts. Your thoughts are always appreciated. Thank you Arturo. ~ Brandy

This reminds me of a couple lines from the Olivia Newton-John song "I Honestly Love You"..."if we both were born in another place in time, this moment might be ending with a kiss." There are so many "what if's" in life and you don't realize in until after the fact when you think back. This beautiful scribble touches me my friend. John

Thank you John. I appreciate your detailed thoughts on this little scribble of mine. Yes, there are and always will be- many moments in life when the heart questions what could have been, or what if? I am sure many can relate to this. My best to you my dear friend. ~ Brandy

The sound of your music is wistful and forlorn. A very emotive expression of longing, very nicely written.

The melody does hold a tender touch of melancholy. When a heart is heavy, a deep longing lingers indeed. Thank you Lawrence. You and your thoughts are appreciated. ~ Brandy

You capture the reader within your sound of music and words of romantic tease..whispers of love. Didn't expect that ending..quite well done, Brandy.

Thank you Vijay. To feel such love, romance- to trace the melody of one heart. Yet, never to know this music. The end, completes the ache inside. Your thoughts always move me. ~ Brandy
