REALISATION REFLECTED

I met my reflection that day,
looking at me in a strange way
as if asking "Who are you?"
Shocked,I replied "I am you!!!"
But behind those brown eyes
that were supposedly mine--
I didn't see any joy arise;
There came no shine!
Rather they scoffed back at me
questioning,"How could that be?"
Justifying, i said "My virtual self is what you are!"
"Is it?That's why you left me so far?"
An accusation ! ! A blame!
How dare it? REVENGE!!
I rebuked "you dont realise yourself? O what a shame!"
I thought to have set its ego aflame.
Surprisingly,it burst into laughter
and mocked "O my dear friend! you claim to be my master!
my real self??my reflaection??
With dignity so low and confidence nil
You find us alike, still?
How can you be so insensitive?
I think good but you are always negative!
i do realise myself,and so i try
Even before facing,you cry.
a fraud is what you are.
To me ,you're nothing but a failure"

Taken aback,i fell silent.
I have changed--i could now see.
But,can't figure out what actually i wanna be!
I was alone amidst thousands
Bothered about people who least deserve me..
I promise to get back,happy is what i wanna be.
Somehow. . .

I met reflection yesterday
Smiling at me in a familiar way
as if asking "Where have you been?
For so long, that smile i hadn't seen."
Behind those brown eyes
That were actually mine
I could see the excitement arise
There came a bright shine
Thanking,it said "It hurt to be alone
Far from you!
And it truly is ecstatic to be back home
in you~~~
My 'Real' Self !"
