Shadow Poem by Aftab Alam

From darkness I came,
I was short but
My shadow was long,
Sun crowned me,
I was the weakest
King of the world,
My dream was east to west/

Slowly shadow shrunk,
At noon it touched my foot,
Or I must say hid under at low,
Sun shone brightly over head/

Sun slid and shadow peeped,
Elongated up to the darkness,
From where I came,
My crown lost like a ghost,
And no more seen//

O! My desire, my hope, my life
Tell me; please tell me, ‘O' My dream!
"What relation do you have with Shadow? "
