How do you know it's love? Is it when you feel butterflies in your stomach At thier sight? Or is it like a shadow that follows you around When you're with them? Just like at dawn when the shadow emerges Tall but fragile, light Tingling at your feet, barely holding on But it exists, right? Is that how love begins? And as the sun steps west Shining a little more, On you, on them, And the shadow, torrid Growing smaller, steadily, holding you tighter Keeping you safe, still. The happiness, Satisfaction, affection, Magic. That's how it progresses, right? And lo, noon. Your star, overhead. with you, Shadow? It's within. The sun and you and your shadow One being. Now hold them all. Together, always. You can't, can you? Nothing stays. As the sun rolls down You can't stop it It has to. The fate, bleak And so is the shadow Fading, its trying to cling on The sun seeping it's colour In you, And you're left with It's shade, visible. The shadow? Invisible As the night reigns The moon replaces. It's bright, Reflects light Tries its best But can't form the shadow. Rest assured It is there Close your eyes, feel it They're both still in you. The sun and love.
