I looked at you
From far behind
But came closer
To what I had in mind,
I saw those blemishes
All over my face-
Finding it hard to hide,
The stained thoughts inside!
Lenes hid my sorrow
Because I was happy outside,
But you were the lens within me-
Who saw me crying inside!
All those times I faked my strength;
Only you knew what I had underwent!!
While I lied to the whole world
You never lied to me;
And when I cried my eyes out
You always cried with me;
People out there
Were always upto something-
Constantly commenting!
They said my eyes were big,
Nose too small,
And hair too long,
For a body so short!!
I was frustrated,
My thoughts subjugated,
Mind unsated,
And spirits defeated;
Then you retrospected,
And reflected,
That it was my untainted heart
That should have prevailed
Over all those thoughts,
Perfectly tainted
A blooming spirit was born in me.
All because of you-
'The Mirror Within Me"
