love shadows flickering

seeing my shadow head away from you, the sun,, my sun, for so long i am remdined of a movie’s line about the sadness as you physically notice the difference between yrself and a lover. i need your gaze so i turn to you without words. my lips only part slightly, wanting a last kiss goodbye but instead i close them. i turn and walk away from myself. when i turn again you’re gone.

i’m not ready to write these words and embrace the possibility that you won’t see them.

i love you and i’m not handling this well.
