Ever since I could remember..
I’ve known
that children, by candle light, have seen a shadow on the wall
and have chased it all night through.
Bussily….
They have tried with all their might to catch it.
And when they most expect to catch it
It shoots most quickly out of sight,
This shadow never shall be caught.
In any trap they lay..
This shadow in the likeness of this world and yesterday.

i like this.
as for me, it sounds like a child with dream and hope, and hands that can’t embrace both of them even after they tried and paid a lot of efforts. just like us, eh? growing up with so many dreams, but after we grown-up, we suddenly realized that life isnt that simple 😐
