Shadow
By Dhruv Shirpurkar
In darkness,
In light
Lives a shadow
In the day,
In the night,
In a little forest,
Somewhere,
Someplace
Lives a shadow
A shadow of my former self,
Full of might,
Little off sight
Sometimes it comes
In sight
Lonely
And angry
And lost
A little sigh
From You
A little look
Is all it takes
To send it back
Diminished
Yet it will come back
And keep on coming back
Returning
Diminishing
Till it is no more
If not for your silent glances
A shadow
Would I have remained
