Shadows

Shadows Shadows of moments lived together still afresh as dew drops, Memories beyond time sway in my mind the shadows engraved, The brightest of days come and go leaving them untouched, I chase these shadows afar running behind gasping for breath always, Watch them distancing furthermore as I am about to reach, The thirst thrives with hope in a desert mirage keeps it moving, Shadows to my soul's heart lengthen and nourish no lonesomeness prevails !

Shadows as memories from the past will always return. I like your position that you choose to look at them as ones that nourish and therefore deserve to be cherished. A 7 and hugs, Dr Upma!
