Song: Shadow on the sun by Audioslave....

"Sometimes a person doesn't appreciate want they have, until they are reminded of what they didn't have in the past. Unfortunately, For different reasons, "Lovers don't always stay"....

Delicated to Navypoet, may your heart find peace my poetic freind...

A polite hello and a hug follow years of departure_silence,
A shadow of a smile, crosses your face,
As shadows of our past block the rays of the sun once again, as memory of she said, he said, "I love you", while under ever the cover of the moonlight...
But for one reason or another, our love never shined in the brightness of the sun,
Only casting a shadow on its surface...
Was it our hearts weren't strong enough to carry the burden of true love,
Or our minds not accepting or not able to decipher the conflicting singles of mix emotions that swept through our bodies as love bloomed...
I knew you, but you never took the time to know the me,
You just wanted to control the me, in the he,
Then call it love...
But when the they came into your life, the we became just me,
And my love became lost and misguided, casting its shadow on the sun...
It didn't matter how hard we tried under the cover of the moonlight,
We could never get the shadow off the sun,
Because trust, now was only inside one...
Parting was not sweet, nor a sorrow,
It was just two persons parting because one love was stuck standing in the moonlight,
While the other was trapped reaching higher for the stars, leaving its shadow on the sun...
