A Fleeting Shadow

You came to my life like a fleeting shadow that briefly passed me by
Akin to a whiff of a perfume
passing in the breeze at night
I inhaled your fragrance in that little moments that we shared
I feel you deeply in my soul
I am still inebriated by your impact that left me dazed for days
You linger in my mind like a memory of a blooming rose in summer, its beauty I cannot forget
I searched for you everywhere hoping to find you again
Trying to feel you once more
I look for you in the smell of the falling rain
In the scent of the blowing wind
In the sway of leaves in the trees
They remind me of you
I imagined you in the color of the fading sunset
In the radiance of the pale moon in moonlit sky
I feel your absence like the darkness of the starless night weighing on my heart
I wonder where you are and I am missing you so much
