Alone

I'm scared of my shadow now....
Oh,you see,its so deadly..
But yet I'm fighting this fear somehow...
Needing some company badly...!

Even light has its loopholes...
It throws back some gigantic shadows....
Like hidden sorrow of agitated souls...
Like thorns that surround a rose....!

Sometimes....the misery of loneliness....
Takes a toll on the mental state....
& I seek refuge in darkness....
As though else I might disintegrate....!

Even silence is deafening....
Like a sullen lament on obituary....
& the swords of Time seem menacing...
When I'm alone with my misery....!
