Evanescence

I am but a shadow on this world
Long shadow, short shadow
It does not matter
I am but a shadow on this world

Evanescence tonight
The night is moonless,there is no shadow
But the tail of a shooting star
Evanescence tonight

Deliquescence of the moment
Footprints on wet sand 
To be erased by the next wave
Deliquescence of the moment

Transience of the salty tear
Born and evaporated 
By the heat of your cheek
Transience of the salty tear

Shallow breath
Insufficient to sustain 
Replaced by the next one
Shallow breath ending life.
