the image

You look at people and you see you.

Because, it’s the other person who dictates your behavior.

And you try harder, to portray the same image

you have portrayed over the years.

Any crack in the mirror will only contort your image

Making the other person confused,

probably inviting ridicule, fear or anguish

And the you in you remain hidden, always.

While your image plays out the role

you are destined to play

for life.
