Shadows Poem by hannah hatfield

Every movement is shadowed
every thought is yours
you own my life, you own my soul
I wish I could see you
and ask you why?
Why, I am so lost without you by my side.
Your face is a crystal image in my mind’s eye
but slowly it will fade, distort, crumble away
I long too keep you there
why can’t I remember?
The coldness is moving through,
and your image cracks,
the wrinkles by your eyes are gone
your smile no longer there.
You left me with the shards, come back.
