    A Stranger In The MirroR.....


    dont look in the mirror when you cry..
    cause all you'll see is an unknown face captured in a wry..

    a stranger mocking at you..
    hollowness in his eyes bemusing you..
    trail left by the path of dried tears amusing you..

    and asking you one question again and again..
    why.. why.. and.. why.. do i deserve all this pain..

    small wrinkles at his forehead
    suggesting ripening of sorrows..
    desperate persue of something unknown..
    in a hope..if some happiness he could borrow..

    his limp thouhts..
    defeated soul..
    frustrated mind..

    bitterness in his face
    jitterness tightning its embrace..
    cursing the time..

    that stranger in the mirror freaks you out
    makes you frown more and more..
    makes you drown..
    takes you down more and more..

    leaving you nowhere.. just helplessness..
    countless regrets..
    endless worries..

    so i say.. dont look in the mirror when you cry..
    instead look into your innerself..
    someone known there, waiting for you to rediscover him..
    and give your life a second try..
    so dont look in the mirror when you cry..

    @elysian...
    dont judge the words only... it has some deep meaning in it.. let me explain..

    the concept of poem is.. dont look at mirror when you cry... means.. dont look at the present miserable state of yours.. (mirror just shows reflection, it can not catch ur innerself.. ) instead of crying over your miserability n helpnessness u should comeout of sorrows n give a confident person inside you take over all defeat n let u win again..

    i hope my poem carries this message effectively...
    n thanks for the comments..
