In all honesty
I expected something
but life has shown
(once again)
I ought not to
have at all.
I am the shadow of love
where once, I was its
sparkle in her eyes
But
Nothing is lost
because
she was not who
I thought she was
Just the figment of a yearning
that simply played games
in my mind.

The promt is the photograph and the thoughts we take from it. At first I thought she was wearing a fake beard *rolls eyes* until I enlarged the picture to discover it’s a bow around her neck. Apparently her husband (the photographer) liked to play with shadows and light.
