Reflective shadows

Like everyday, I put a gloss in my lips

and look at my face on the glass tips—

Ain't I looking fine?

Am I looking like 'me?'

It's reflecting, an image of transportation

on the other side.

*

You know even those mirrors

can't make a perfect reflection,

it makes a reflection so true—

but in the opposite direction,

only you can make it easy

for you to see.

*

What if it's not real?

What if this transition of between me

& the reflection is a facade?

just like regularly base, I put a smile

to fake a truth. 

*

these reflectively images

are bluffers,

only putting the same,

as you want to show.

even the fastest wave of lights

go with opposite direction —

when it dares to come in front

of the white glasses.

So, how can you believe

in what you see?
