Defining shadow perfection

In the run ins

of the ins and outs of my love.

I've found

I've never loved anything

as much as I've loved

the shadow he cast.

His shadow

was wonderful,

but the light framed his face

like a halo frames

the fruit of a flame.

And at times,

his beauty was too much.

His shadow

was much easier to love.

It appeared

and disappeared.

When the sun would set

like it always does.

in the far off hills,

by the time,

shadow lover

disappeared

There was no ray

cast on his brow

His shadow was less disappointing.

He created,

Shadow perfection;

perfection in the form of

beauty that comes between

the light he casts

and my cold surface.

Beautiful shapes

he created.

The second his foot

graced my floors.
