Shadow

Sitting in a train, lonely, wondering …

I fell in love with a shadow, a reflection on the window.

Your eyes appeared, where the darkness of the seats ends and the light of the window appears, big, they must be green, I love you my darling.

I can’t move my head, my neck is in pain but I can’t turn my back because I may loose your shadow, that beautiful reflection on a window.

Moving to the right and I had to cry my eyes out. In the hardest moment of my life, I almost lost those green eyes. Moving to the left and it was the biggest event.

Big forehead, small nose, green eyes and golden curls. I’m very happy to have you my beautiful angel.

Devil came, the man in black, the bastard. He wants my ticket but he only wants to force his own shadow, he wants to kill it, that beautiful reflection on a window.

I want to find you, I want to hold you but I can’t stand up and look for the real you because I may loose your shadow, the most beautiful reflection on a window.

You are 2 seats away but there is a world between us. I cannot cross the seven seas, I don’t have Iron boots but I have a chaotic mind, I am holding you in my arms.

The train stopped moving. We have to go. We have to leave each other. I stood up, walking to the door, passing the second row, I saw an ugly nose. Nobody is like you, you are the best, and you are the most beautiful. I love you my shadow.

Our journey ends but we have to move on. I will never search for you, I will never look for the real you but I will always remember you, the most beautiful reflection on a window!
