In the maid

shadow,

the maid stood there

all alone.

Tall and bright

and casting a

long

shadow.

In the maid

shadow,

the maid stood there

all alone.

Casting her shadow

for no,

no one.

The maid,

the maid,

she stood

and stood.

Casting her shadow

for who

or what?

She stood there

all alone.

She stood there

casting her shadow.

What did she catch

when she cast

her shadow out?

What did she catch?

Was it grim?

Did it make

a frown?

In the maid shadow

the maid

cast it out.

In the maid

shadow,

what did she catch

when she cast her shadow?

What did she catch?

What was she seeking?

Do we know

or do we care?

Lost in the delight

of her shadow.
