The shadow is famous to everything,
But not everything knows that
The color is famous to the object,
Which in every case, is everything
Time is famous to sense,
But sense does not feel the rush of time
As it passes by
The dew is famous to the conceited flower,
But the flower’s exceptional beauty does not exist
Without the dew
The concept is famous to the idea,
The idea returns the fame,
For they are both equal
But both concept and idea
Don’t exist in the same way
Love is famous to the mind
Or at least it thinks it is
People make it think it is
For love does not recognize itself
It manifests in many different ways
It blinds and confuses itself
Love is actually famous to feeling
For only feeling can truly understand the concept of love
Author notes
A poem I wrote back when I was a bit younger...Like, a year ago...almost. It's not my best, but it was my best poem that was under 30 lines. And yeah, I'm 12. Though technically, I'd say 11, cause that's how old I was when I wrote this.
It was written for class, we were supposed to be inspired by some poem. I forget which, but I liked this one...

Wow this is really good! It made me think a lot. What you talk about in this poem is stuff that I don't normally pay attention to or think about, but it's true, and that's what I love about this poem. Great job!!! Good luck in the contest
