She changed

She came at the door,

With the eyes, where all my secret lies,

you may write down all,

beloved, are you still mine ?

 

I noted the obvious differences,

shadows on the wall,

the dark sadness,

beloved, are you still mine ?

 

When you come to me,

You declare you see me dimly,

that night went long,

and I keep on dying again and again….
