The mirror-talk

And here, she calls him again
loud enough for him to hear, she says-
I thought this was it, is more to come?
If it is, How'd I know its coming?

His silence almost killed her,
would he ever answer? now she asks herself.
staring at her own eyes, into the mirror-
"You ve' lost the charm", says the mirror.

She now closes her eyelids,
a burst of laughter- the mirror laughs!
Her eyelids now wide open, into the mirror.
one angry look and the laughter faded away!

Stop staring at me- the mirror shouts!
And that is exactly what I want- she says,
Whom do you think you're asking it from?
Its within you- said the mirror!


Now, stop staring at me- she smiles!
This is exactly who you are, the mirror says.
Whom do you think you're looking at?- she asks
Your beautiful smile, said the mirror!
