The Shadow of a man
I once saw in my dreams
The vision of a person
who would take care of me
The shadow of a boy
that has waited for me as well
the blurred image of a guy
who could love me as I am
An imprint of a soul
That could see mine as good
A beating of a heart
Waiting to love
The shadow of a man
Whom I will find someday
