To catch a Shadow (a #CirclePoem)

How to catch a shadow 
if you've never chased a dream?
On time moving on
without knowing it stood still 
or on promises broken 
by a night or the will 
to end the ability 
to describe an angel 
without ever having seen one 
or even heard of their existence?

Try to love 
without empathy and you'll fail.
Try to feel
without touch and you'll fall 

because you'll never know 
how to catch a shadow
