The shadow

"Its the same black sky, and I could sense its about to rain, still I grieve for all the days that are gone, for the love I have lost….Its all grief, the houses that we made are long destroyed by the waves…I am still standing here waiting for the tides to gulp me the way it did to him…"

She said contemplating the moonless sky…

"its all part of the journey"  a shadow answered,

"such pain? How can such a feeling be a part of anyone's  journey?"

The shadow was silent,

"you don't even know the answer, you don't even know what's wrong with me, you just said what you thought might be 'appropriate'  " the girl shouted,

"yes you are right…I don't even know the answer….i lost love too, shouted the way you just did, before I lost myself to the tide. Now here I am  just a wandering soul without flesh and bones, I still have no answers! "

"where would I get my answers from?"

"you  need  to  live  through  it….don't die, don't give up! You might help me  in reaching  for my answers too…. "

The shadow said and disappeared.
