My Dreams with my Shadow

My Dreams with my Shadow

It is a dream with my shadow
dull and shabby with tears
N o segment as past and present
Pains and strugglings continued there
Tried to wake up and tried to move away
I've failed ,failed
There I was sleeping as a log
Hunger haunted  and
Fear swallowed me as it's prey
Dark ,nothing is there except dark
Threatened  me
to lie as a log in my bed for long
