Shadow

Posted on August 24, 2022 by Penny Wilson Writes

*Another collaborative effort with my friend Chuck over at The Reluctant Poet. I hope you enjoy our efforts.

Just out of reach

a shadow of you

follows me

during my days

My nights are spent

in longing

Reliving those tender moments

and memories of us

Your shadow proves

you are always near

It gives me hope and comfort

to still feel your love

in my heart

As you keep your promise

to watch over me
