BROKEN MIRROR

So often you get lost
In the abyss of your own misery
You create realms that harbour your share of darkness
An imaginary place
Where you exercise your demons
And forget that exercising demons
Juxtaposes owning them
And you become a demi devil,
You are so desperate to believe
To the extent that you become gullible even to plain lies
And when the going gets tough
You hide behind the camouflage of ignorance

Poor soul
It is when the mirror breaks
That you realize your mistakes
The minute you get that wake up call
A slap in the face
You snap out of your illusion
And reality flashes before your gigantic eyes which lack vision
But probably its too late
The deed is already done
And you are done for
And doomed, to deal,
With a disturbingly dark destiny
That of a broken mirror

A broken mirror
Reflecting nothing but scars
Scars of bad choices, misused resources
Foolish decisions,wasted chances
And unimaginable losses,
There is nothing you can do now, but regret
Regret and self pity are now the only sentiments
That your heart can explicitly express
And like every loser you lie down
And in a low,little ,sad and lonely voice
The only words you can utter are
'If only, if only, if only"
Sadly whats done is done
A broken mirror can not be fixed.
