EPONINE

A shadow is not always colorless. 
Sometimes a shadow disguises so they will not be seen as a shadow. 
But unlike real shadows, they get most attention when it is dark than it is of day. 
I am an epitome of that. 

I love you. 

You were that man that saved me from misery, loneliness, and alienation. 
You are a mixture of manliness and fulfilled dreams.
You shone light upon my world.
You saved me from greediness and I learned to be greedy only of you.

I love you. 

We spent so many winters, and for so many summers, I had cherished you. 
But in just one day, you were struck by an arrow - mesmerized by her beauty; then began, I became a shadow.

You would ask me for favors when you're in need, I would exert all effort, then would offer me a weak grin when we cross at the hallway after that. 
She stands there silently and you would carress her cheek; I'd feel extremely sad, you only pat me on my shoulders. 

But I love you, even so. 

I have hidden behind so many walls just to catch a glimpse of you.
I sung endless songs of admiration of you while you sing to her yours.
I would block a million bullets and join you in the war; she would anxiously pray from afar. 
I will spend my last breath grateful of dying on your arms.
Though I know your very last words, it is her name that you grasps.

I love you, even so.

For witnessing your lovely smiles reminds me of the reason why I smile.
Just one look at your eyes, I remember why mine were sparkling.

For,
On my own, I am dreaming of us.
On my own, I am curious of what might have been. 
On my own, I am loving you.
