Wish of a shadow

Lost in the midnight

Even when forgotten

My heart searches for yours

In the fountain

Coin and coin flew from my hand

Yet here i stood

My wish never to be grant

I remember a shadow

As it quickly passed

It looked like you

Even had your silver eyes

Yet it all was a shadow

Twas not meant to be you

For you would never use a arrow

Of the truth

Words fell softly from your lips

But all i could here was a whisper

The wind spoke out

My hearing not to be fixed

Yet again a coin flew from my hand

Yet here i stood

Waiting in endless dismay

Once again you passed by

A lengthened shadow all to see

My wish not granted...

Yet still i looked to you'

In remembrance of what once

....was your shadow
