Like A Shadow!

No one is known today,

What is known is yet unknown,

There can de no definition of Known,

For each person is just a stranger and nothing more!

Unknown both to the world and to its own self,

Each stranger grows and prospers by-

by innumerable experiences given by Life,

Thousands by another stranger passing by,

Few by the strangers he thought were known,

And many by Strangers actually Unknown!

The paths traversed were difficult indeed,

For there were hurdles and riddles in between,

And each stranger obviously remains a part of it,

Its own Self still hidden and distant indeed,

Still, like a shadow it lurks heavy over it!

Unseen but still a part of it,

Thanks to be a part of it!

For only a stranger can cure the strange-ness,

And makes it look over the haze,

For although clouds were occupying the entire sky

When came rain!

But still shadow was the whole

When came noon!
