Shadow

I know where he is.

I know the distance.

I can measure it.

I know it well.

But tonight, by the moonlight.

I could tell, no I could swear.

..that strangers shadow.

He was here.

I was safe.

My heart fluttered, as my breath escaped.

It was riveting to have him close again.

For that second.

That Second.

I had him.

Then light was shown, and he was gone.

in the same instant he was here.

It broke my heart as it healed.

...He was here...

But now no more.

Somethings are better left, unclear.
