Sometimes I’m in your shadow too much <br />And slip in to it like putting on a comfy overcoat. <br />Some days I wonder if your life has been worthwhile <br />Or I would have been better off without you. <br /> <br />Sometimes it’s like fastening the old buttons on an overcoat <br />The difficulties that you created for me. <br /> Your shadows sometimes overpower me and make me feel <br />Like I’m lost in a fog of if only. <br /> <br />I have decided to get rid of your shadow <br />Like hanging an old overcoat back on the rack. <br />But I find I’m still keeping the hanger without knowing <br />Hidden in an old carrier bag.<br /><br />Chris Darlington<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/lost-in-the-fog-2/
