I Am Envious On My Partner

I am envious 
Albeit you stay by me,
You are dark 
While the sun shines,
You laugh at me 
When I am delight,
You cry with me
Without knowing my pain... 

You can climb trees 
But I can't,
You can dance with me,
But you won't feel dizzy... 
You will be happy 
If I get applause....
You will hide behind me
If I get scolded,

I will strain hard to seek permission ..
But you will accompany me 
As you are granted..... 
Every day I try hard,
Without efforts you 
Dwell with me, 

You won't ever get scolded
You won't ever have feelings 
You won't ever have pain
Still you stay with me
On the daylight ...
You leave me alone 
In the deadly darkness... 
I feel my pain 
You reel my pain, 
I am envious 
Albeit you are my shadow...
