The mirror offers you an image
Mirroring your inner-self
Also reflecting your thoughts
Imaging according to your perception
Either you are in alliance, what you see
Or shocked by the alter-ego hidden
Now reflected by the crystal clear mirror
Sometimes the clarity is a revelation
Difficult to comprehend
When you are in front of the mirror
Standing in front of another ‘You’
It’s a dual versus you and your twin
Always carrying that image in you
Now clearly exposed by the mirror
Reflection of the self, reflecting on your mind
Is it a union of duality?
Seamlessly bound, unaware all the while
Until you confront the mirror
Challenging you with the duality
Not a deceit, but now aware of the self
Is it that the mirror gives a self-realization?
What the mirror offers, is not only an image
