SHADOWS... In U i SEE another ME

District out of electricity- is a normal case in assam no doubt bout that.Not even a week had elapsed after I reached my home town for vacations dat our dearest ASEB( “the” Assam State Electricity Board) started showing its true colours, after a week’s continuous supply in my welcome lolz.
Snapp… electricity out.. gone… zzzooooo power off
My dearest ASEB always has such nuisances to offer me .. aaaah irritating.it gets on my nerves..
Hot weather and … fans out of power...
O god!! How worse can it get for resting kids who r back home for funtime n relaxation.!!
In my view.. I think..the electricity board has taken “CHANDA MAMA” for granted..
Every moonlit night .. they snap off the power considering ppl of the district can survive on moonlight.. how stupid of them..
Irritated .. I went out!! In search of cool breeze..
Leaning on a wall, an unused torchlight in hand..
I faced the MOON… and the SHADOWS fell behind me.
A thought struck my poetic cerebellum.
And there I went scribbling down a poem..

SHADOWS…. In U I see , I see another ME.
Well.. ASEB whatever .
U irritated me , made me lodge complaint..
But at last proved to b a blessing in disgrace for me.. heheh
I realized.. I found a new topic for my next piece of poetry..

Here it is……

SHADOWS
….. In U I See, I see another ME



Partial darkness or say a dark patch
Whatever u call it
Unabolished it is, unaffected by any scratch.
Run Run Run.. try running away
Neither ur soul nor ur physical self can escape it
It wont leave ur side
Onto u its strongly tied
SHADOW- its ur soul guide.



SHADOWS----------sHaDoWs
Blind , deaf, dumb they are
Speeches they don’t entertain
Even ur shadow
Is unaware of ur name.
Still.. o shadow
In u I see, I see another ME
Our second selves our shadows be.


SHADOWS------------------sHaDoWs

U direct them,
They instruct ur mind.
Dark it is,
With a hope so strong.
Never can they b blamed
Coz for society
its u (not they)who will always seem to go wrong.
Still In U I see,I see another ME.


SHADOWS-------sHaDoWs

Shadow- a lifetime companion
Like an eternal love it holds ur hand.
In funtime or in seclusion
More close than a best friend it stands.
In u I see, I see another ME


I fanc’d its feet
Reversed and came to meet.
An image view of mine.
There lies behold.
Another world beneath me thinks,
Shadows are………..
Speechles, inarticulate
With thousand mysteries, untold.
Still In u I see, I see another ME.



SHADOWS---------------sHaDoWs
I faced the moon
The shadows fell behind
I tried touching the……
I tried catching me……
All my efforts were in vain.
I wanted to feel them
I refrain.
Our representatives our shadows be
In u I see, I see another ME.


Sometimes I feel..
I feel dat praising the dark
Isn’t done, is noxious.
Then realized
How wud an infancy turn to a matured adulthood
How wud one know wats light.. wats wrong wats right.
If eyes not felt a spark
In the dark.

SHADOW- a mirror image of urs
Its ur identity.
Still in a shadow I see
I see another ME.


O SHADOW!!
The fickle world has enough for me
FRIENDS , FOES all I hav seen
Of all in life
For ur non-demanding, selfless fellowship
Sumwhere life gave me
another reason to survive.
SHADOWS----o-----sHaDoWs
U r a silent companion till my last breath
With these words for u I shall embrace death.

In my grave
Please be with me
Give me company.
For still then
Another ME..
In u
I want to see.
