Observation

I deeply observed the shadow
I keenly observed the glowing light
I looked within to find myself
An ounce of pain, a breathing soul
Sometimes the heart weeps alone
I think, why I write?
I look for the answers again,
I am what I have become
My observation has changed my world
I am changing like the evening turning to the night
I lack the courage to become a shadow reflected by the light
But I know that shadow is a darker shade of meaning
And it can be meaningful.
It can leave a heavy trace, since it is darkness at rest.
May be I can kindle some light out of it.
