(**Repost**)Every now and then, the mirror compels me to confront myself..
Unlike the alive beings, it is completely pretence proof.
It smirks at the fake smile I offer….
ruthlessly reveals the creases of pain on the face..
i can even see the unknown tears absurdly dance in the eyes waiting for their turn…
while the dried ones have left smudges so conspicuous now….
the artificial lotions n potions do nothing to conceal the angst….
I shudder at my own ghastly image ……..
it gets unbearable and the very moment I decide to run away
there is a flash of light ...a blur…
then, I see myself again but with a fresh reflection….
a smile extends on the face that is so pure…
skin sparkles with innocence...
eyes that twinkle with hope….
their crystal waters shimmer with beautiful dreams…
Life is like a pendulum that oscillates between agony and ecstasy….
and so does my existence……. :)
