my shadow

my shadow is annoying

follows me everywhere I go

that is if the sun is shining

late evening my shadow gets elongated

and makes me look thin

at noon, my shadow becomes portly

the only shadow that delights me

is when I see your shadow enter my room

and float across my bed until the sun goes down.

I hold it until morning

the lonely man at the window

the old man sits by the window

she left him here yesterday

said she would be back soon

he went to bed but could not sleep

has she stayed away on purpose?

next morning he arises again

to sit and wait even if it takes an eternity

he said he would wait

and that he did until his dying day

this morning at daybreak
