Embracing your Shadow

I look at you as much as I can
I look at you because I like
I tried to convince my step
Instantly, I doubt I can not hold you
I'm afraid to think about you

I took my steps, closed my eyes
Feels, it hurts, even if it's unharmed
I imagine myself walking backwards
Slowly away from you
Want to feel this hand reach you
Feel the warmth of your hand
Feel your heartbeat

But I can not
My aunt whispered, my heart said, beautifully hugging your shadow
