Life is Like A Shadow



Life is like a shadow by Aymin Shatara
We chase it,it runs
We stop,it comes
Sun up , we go
Sun down, we come
Never stop, we want it bad
Once we get, we are good
Now we got it, we want more.
Never satisfied, so we have less
When we compare, to the top
We chase , we don't stop
We are at the bottom, then who is at the top
The most content, will always have the most.
We chase life, it goes faster,
We get close, it gets further ,
Like a ghost.
We grasp it, next thing you know
Thanks to our greed, we almost had it.
