Me and My True Self!

When I stood alone in gloom and sadness
No one came to console my breathless heart
I could not see any path to which
I would walk for a new start!
Darkness and deepening darkness
All round I could only see
Every single hope
I had set free…
 
I felt a force of attraction
Suddenly I felt a relief!
I could not stop my steps
Walking to the eternal light
Coming in a silent ray
Very away from me, from that sight.
 
Amazed! When my eyes saw
Either my wit or my seeing
One of them must have a flaw!
Standing some steps within
My replica, my own form
My mind was very keen
To pacify my curious storm.
 
Same in everything
Except the gesture of face
I was in deep sorrow
He had calm look full of grace!
I was dejected of me, very sad
He was content with him, very glad!
 
Before I could initiate the talk
He showed his hand,
And said, “Dear, stop”.
“I am not someone else
In fact no other than you!
I am not what is,
I represent what can be.
I will mingle in you,
But if you promise, you determine
You will leave the cover of gloom
You will break your relation with
discontent.
 
In trouble, in joys
If every time you learn to rejoice
I will come with you, without any choice!”
 
Then my eyes I open
I learnt my dream has broken!
But a lesson it has taught
And with life, I always fought!
