Image for the poem shadows

shadows

the light is going fast
and you'll soon see
or maybe say (like
other men have said)
you look best in shadows
it's those high cheekbones
so-called bedroom eyes
the this or that of you

it's supposed to
be a compliment but
you don't see the same things
i see in the darkness
mainly the shadow
of the shadow
