One day as I crawled out of bed,
this peculiar thought cropped in my head.
It said,
are you dead?
I don't know why, but to the mirror I ran,
is it possible can I be a dead man?
In a matter of seconds to my surprise,
It came to be true what I felt were lies.
In the mirror as I gazed I stood appalled,
on the bed was my body that never crawled.
I did get up how could that be,
while I stood there, on the bed was me.
Died, dead, departed ???
but life had just started!!!
I gave a call to my mother,
and then to dad and then to brother.
But none could hear me like I said,
my body was there but I was dead.
At a distance, outside, I heard mom call,
I ran towards her as I ran through a wall.
Could I do it wow that seemed magical,
or rather I should say it seemed illogical.
Mom was climbing the stairs, approaching my room,
unaware her son's not sleeping , he's reached his doom.
As she swung open the door I covered my eyes,
I wouldn't have been able to witness her cries.
Anytime now when she would learn,
then they would take me away and simply burn.
While all these thoughts bombarded my head,
I couldn't believe, me, myself said...
yeah it was me these aren't lies,
I said, “yeah yeah I'm up just resting my eyes”
As mom walked out she walked through me,
but I am here this cannot be.
Then I recalled, what happened last night,
myself and I both had a fight.
While I said I love her and cant forget,
Myself kept saying,”you'll have to you bet!”
and then the fight reached its goal,
Myself kicked I out of its soul.
Now in my body lives myself alone,
While I am left with no flesh no bone.
Now who knows what happened how when and why,
I live without myself and myself without I.

i know how it feels, not to find urself besides you! But we walk alone all our lives, only shadows are meant to be true companions! Then why lament? Why lament?
