reflection                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             they made me!!
what  have you done  to me?
why  are you scared of what you have given to life?/
you taught only i would suffer!


creating thy self have become pain ,
when insetting  you have not forgotten to add tears to it,
now my flesh is made out of grief:
and it shine  every  time  the eyes of the sun hits it:  
shine and shout of other pain and hardship,
now callers from my flesh voices call!!

how dare you shout for help  and  salvation?
you must be in my flesh also calling out like this voice,
you have taken salvation away from their mouths!

you what  have you done,
you have seen how   deep you are into pain
cause am your reflection
how dare you!!
why did you make me so in grief??
