Smell of shadow

She’s gone,
but her smell lingers on.
In my dreams
I know she will be
once more.

She said:
“Did you remember my eyes?”,
I thought:
“How could I forget?”;
but just said “Yes”

My shadow,
that’s what she is.
Attached to me,
but when I get close
she flees.

My waiting
Is going to be long,
I´m cursed.
But I just don’t know
if it’s bad or if it’s good,
after all.
