Embrace a shadow
One does not feel a thing
except to lay on the ground
or perhaps flat to the wall.
Whenever I run after it,
the shadow moves further away.
It especially won't speak to me
as I talk to it under the sun.
And I lose it most at night
when the moon never shines.
I can create artificial ones though
through street lamps
although it's not the same.
I so much want to hug the shadow
but I guess it never wanted
me at all.
the shadow being a person you dont like much....but you want to settle the score with them...all the same - Essence Scott
very emotional and beautiful
This is a really good but sad poem that you wrote here, and yet, it's a beautiful masterpiece of what you had to express from deep down within yourself. =)
This reminds me of Peter Pan and his shadow that ran away. I think shadows are all secretly in cahoots with one another. Well written poem.
I think this if funny, but I also wonder why we have shadows at all ,what's the purpose? hahalol..
