Virtual Mirror
REFLECTION - Ashish Sengupta
Reflection - the blade cuts in both directions - one kills - one heals - there she touches his heart...
I was struggling
to sleep
but the pain
in my heart
was threatening
to burst open
Which was
virtually
getting me
into an
emotional
strangulation.
So I got up
and wandered
in the darkness
of my
room
The vacuum
increased
the pain
in my
heart
once
again
I
wanted
to cry
as I
couldn’t
bear this
loneliness
anymore
Restlessly
I went
and stood
on the
balcony
to be
greeted
by a cool
refreshing
breeze
Soothing
my
pain
a bit
The roads
were
empty
the houses
looked dull
and
ugly
The
silence
of the
night
gripped
me
with a
sudden
fear
Loneliness
loomed
large
again
Tears
flooded
my eyes
blurring
my
vision
I walked
back
into the room
switched
on the
lights
Bathed
myself
in the
soft
glow
of it
It helped
as it
washed
away
the fear
of
death
Because
light
symbolises
life
But
still
I
couldn’t
help
wondering
about
my
loneliness
And then
by chance
I caught
a glance
in
the mirror
A smile
grew
on my
face
making it
look
brighter
For I have
then
realized
I
wasn’t
lonely
anymore
Because
I
was
with
myself...

Obama's Poll Numbers Are Falling to Earth By DOUGLAS E. SCHOEN and SCOTT RASMUSSEN (WSJ) It is simply wrong for commentators to continue to focus on President Barack Obama's high levels of popularity, and to conclude that these are indicative of high levels of public confidence in the work of his administration. Indeed, a detailed look at recent survey data shows that the opposite is most likely true.Foundation update
