There Are Only Shadows Of You And Me Poem by Caitlyn Brooks

There Are Only Shadows Of You And Me

Rating: 5.0


There are only shadows of you and me
I have not met you
But our bonds feel deep
I dream of the days that could’ve once been
And when I wake I see you there
Your shadow and mine are entwined

We are closer than any two beings
For we are so alike
We share the same blood and
Color of hair
I have not met you yet
But I can see
There are only shadows of you and me

You wrote a story and mentioned me
You said things that only you would know would comfort me
To not feel guilty for your death was on me
Your voice filled my head with joy with
Talks of heaven and your fun there
When I look towards the sky
I can feel your smile come down on me
When I look down
There are only shadows of you and me

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I had to pick a sentence and repeat it more than once in a poem for class and i picked 'There are only shadows of you and me' and i instantly thought of my deceased sister that i haven't met but feel really close to and this is my first poem i wrote for her.
