SteemitPoetryContest #8 - A tale of Fog and Shadows (stay with me)
"A tale of Fog and Shadows (stay with me)"
Maybe you've forgotten me-
or maybe you've never noticed...
But I was there
And you are here still...
I can't recall your face that clear
But know that by many means, you're always here
A vivid, yet mysterious shape haunting me for eternity
I look up to the sky, the clouds take the shape of your face,
A dreamy illusion of unspeakable beauty ...
I can never think of letting you go
whether it can be called love - I don't know...
In a cold winter morning, walking all alone-
A passing by fog takes your shape
smiles like you smiled long ago
or cries..... I don't know.....
Hiding inside the depth of the woods,
An unknown bird calls your name
My heart stops for a beat
I know it's not you - you can't be
Still, that's so I hear... that's so I see...
I know, you'll haunt me like this
Forever... and, for eternity ...
In December nights, when the moon is full -
Holding a burning cigarette, I stand on my porch
Not to fancy the moon, or to watch the falling snow -
But to see your shadow-form passing by -
Like a smog in December moonlight
You went away - without so much knowing me
But that's okay... In my mind, I am free
I can see you in a thousand shapes in my dreams
I can touch you... Kiss your lips...
Some may call me illusive; some may call me insane
But I don't mind - I don't care a bit
As a mystery in the clouds, a foggy shape in winter dawns,
A ghostly shadow under cold December Moon -
Or an unknown bird's sweet harmony -
By any means, you will forever stay with me.....

I hope you've enjoyed it. Some lines came to my mind while i was typing it on my computer, so the typed version has become a bit longer than the original paper version :)For more poems and contents on history, nature, art, mystery - stay with me by following me here on steemit.
