Shadows In the Dark
Shadows in the dark are now what I see
Murky pictures of the loved ones no more with me
I stare at them with a trembling heavy heart
For we are now millions of light years apart
Shadows line up as an army of ghosts at my door
Asking me to exit the door without the hurt which I once bore
Grappling with the painful thoughts, I take a step forward
Towards my loved ones, and never look backward
Ah! The reflections disappeared with the break of the dawn
I Ran around to find them with a mind so bogged down
Alas! I fell off from my bed, it was a dream insane
I shouted,'Hold on! I am feeling no more inane'
For they showed me glowing light even in the dark
Now I can find a way no matter how loud is the life's bark
Shadows in the Dark will always show me the light
To fulfill zillion dreams and win life's every fight
