I'm but a shadow
belonging neither here nor there.
I try to find the comfort in the men
who do not need it anymore,
who do not care;
who run so fast
that I can hardly see them.
I stretch my arms,
I'm stumbling,
I'm crying out loud,
but getting no response.
I'm but a shadow,
although some time ago
I was ahead of everyone,
but it's too sad
to be ahead
alone.
I never tried my best,
I tended to look back,
to stop, to wait,
until one day
I found myself
behind.
I'm but a shadow,
I travel through the space
approaching speed of light.
I'm solid, I'm the same
as thousand years ago.
as thousand miles away,
but those I love
are aging,
changing,
fading.
They all are way too fast
for me to keep up with.
And I am
but a shadow,
belonging
neither there
nor
here.
no country for...
