Playing with my shadow

Playing with my shadow

Somewhere in the north of Arabia

There was a dog near the red sea,

Who would weep for the entire day?

Not many people knew his sounds

Of grief and sorrow which lead him;

To spent his whole life without love.

The separation brought his life on the

Cross roads, so one day he wakes up

And saw the moon performing magic

on the sand so he starts to play with

his own shadow and thinks he finally

Found someone to love for till the sunrise.

Day after day ; these endless nights

became his only source for joy

and what else he could have asked for?

after weeping the entire day and that

only night became his day.

It’s not an imagination, I witnessed it

From my own eyes, even I went there one night

With my mother’s sorrow in my eyes; I thought

Sorrow is only for humans. But my proved theory

Was judged perfectly by the shadow of moon

On that silvery dark sky which describes the pain

of that dog whose fate roped by the shadow of moon.
