Day was young! <br />As I walked, my shadow walked along <br />Flat, cool, and dark, much larger than myself <br /> <br />I was proud! <br />As I moved, my shadow mimicked my actions <br />I loved my shadow, I was my shadow <br /> <br />Time moved on! <br />As I burned, in scorching heat of my destiny, <br />My shadow grew smaller and smaller <br /> <br />I lost my shadow! <br />I lost my shadow into myself, in my solitude <br />I realized that I am all alone <br /> <br />From within myself, <br />I saw my shadow grow again slowly <br />Growing slowly, much larger than myself<br /><br />Vinod Varma<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/me-and-my-shadow-4/
