my poem

CHASING THE SHADOW
Taking birth and cry for the first time,
looking at everything new,
an innocent smile and
a breeze of affection
since then chasing the shadow.........

In the midst of the childhood,
in the ignorance of things
running on fixed track
evolving the traits
since then chasing the shadow..........

Growing up with expectations
the new thoughts arising
with the new zeal and valour
striving for everything
since then chasing the shadow...........

with the increasing responsibility
and crowling dependents
the hunger to achieve more
the dreamy days thoughts
since then chasing the shadow.............

with the decreasing durations
the march towards the intellect
the updating mind with the external world
but forgetting the eternal world
since then chasing the shadow...............

In the darkness of nights of short duration
in the horror of death
heading towards the end of story
chasing the shadow........
chasing the shadow......... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
