Desperate... to see your face,
unsaturated by shadows.
Stalking your steps,
clutching this drowning light.
Our mated souls~unable to let go.
unsaturated by shadows.
Stalking your steps,
clutching this drowning light.
Our mated souls~unable to let go.

Hello there.

a good dark image packed piece of poetry - shadows obscure features in a black and white moment that's captured.
