OBJECT IN THE MIRROR


Mirror mirror…You are the one I see and I’m the one you see anytime I look at you.  When I’m before you, the world is behind me.  You never gave me a second to explain why, just because you are ever ready to retaliate any time I go off the line.
My smiles may get me going , but I go faster anytime you reflect them back to me.
I taught of frowning , and there you pause laughing. As I keep some distance, then I saw you departing. With you, my flaws and shortcomings never go unnoticed. You keep record of every step I take. But I commend you for one thing, in my absence , you never reveal  my personality to the world- oh jealousy!

Time is running out-Yes I know ! , but let’s maintain the distance at par. In alacrity, we await the bound of affection so unrelenting and indelible. I am certain that you will never go beyond how far I would go. As I bend , I see you bending too. But I’m happy we remain unbroken.

There is an opportunity in this adversity. That’s the moment you shown me reality. In times of  sorrow, rejection and dejection, I help by  installing unquantifiable infectious smiles on your face.

Before I could say Jack, you have become an expert in explaining the law of Karma-you made me your carbon copy.
A child figuring how you do so may desire to touch and have a feel of you by trying to going behind the mirror just to see a thin air. I also thought I’ve been deceived a million times because at a point , I did same. As I grow , I remembered what Mum said , ”

Piesie , what you are seeing in there is your reflection and nothing else.

” Thence I remembered what’s inscribed in the driving mirror “objects in the mirror are closer than they appear.”
