My Poems



THE SHADOW

I woke up from my sleep
when the sun began to rise put themselves right in the middle
scorching heat makes burning in the eyes
with strong forced to straighten up
 
then I walk in the sun
I see there are people who just like me
he walked right beside me
movement just like what I do

I'm confused , who he
why could just as I
do not stop following
and imitate all the gestures

I hasten my steps
I finally ran and ran
Strange?
He too ran just as I
 
my legs were tired
body lay right next to the old woman
but this is not only a copycat me
I just like twin sister and the old woman
 
Mom , why are there just like you sitting there?
who is he? why I also followed him
I fear he is always chasing me
what is that? who is she?
 
 
he is the shadow ( the old woman replied )
What are you doing that is visible
you ran he ran
you sit he also sits
 
That the shadow like twin sisters
he will stay with you as long as you are heading
such as the pursuit of ideals
or silent useless
