Getting different behavior on span text when using position-CodePudding

How do I get this style =>

Using position: absolute? If I use position: relative, this works! But I need the same style above with position: absolute only

Position => absolute

.text {
  position: absolute;
  width: 100%;
  text-align: center;
  box-shadow: 0 0 0 1px white;
  line-height: 145%;
  padding: 0.2em 0.3em;
  color: white;
  box-decoration-break: clone;
  -webkit-box-decoration-break: clone;
  background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, .9);
  border-radius: 3px;
  white-space: pre-wrap;
  font-size: 1.125rem;
}

<span >Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book</span>

Position => relative

.text {
  position: relative;
  width: 100%;
  text-align: center;
  box-shadow: 0 0 0 1px white;
  line-height: 145%;
  padding: 0.2em 0.3em;
  color: white;
  box-decoration-break: clone;
  -webkit-box-decoration-break: clone;
  background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, .9);
  border-radius: 3px;
  white-space: pre-wrap;
  font-size: 1.125rem;
}

<span >Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book</span>

Why this happens and how can I fix this? Tried to change many things but no success.

Thank you very much

You could wrap your normal, relatively positioned, text inside a another tag and make that absolute. This will leave the text flowing normally instead of making a single block of it. Something like this:

.box {
  position: absolute;
  width: 100%;
  text-align: center;
  top: 15px;
}

.text {
  box-shadow: 0 0 0 1px white;
  line-height: 145%;
  padding: 0.2em 0.3em;
  color: white;
  box-decoration-break: clone;
  -webkit-box-decoration-break: clone;
  background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, .9);
  border-radius: 3px;
  white-space: pre-wrap;
  font-size: 1.125rem;
}

<div ><span >Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book</span></div>

With HTML/CSS the solution is often more nesting.

Wrap your textarea inside a container div and give position: relative; to the container, and position: absolute; to span, now to be sure your div default behavior which is display: block; will make your span flow on the extreme left so use display: inline-block; for your container div
