My Shadow Poem by Abdulrazak Aralimatti

My Shadow



I attempt to climb the ladder
The ladder pointing towards the zenith
Leaned towards the wall of earth
But my shadow beneath pulls me
My shadow dark and black
Unwilling to befriend the light above
It befriends the gravity
The gravity of the earth
Powerful, attractive and magnetic
Entangled is me between light and darkness
O! I know darkness can't eat the light
And light verily eats darkness
