Broken

KB Manchanda

To know, What life is.......
It is immens to be alive
and no one is immortal, ever

Come and let us all wear mirrors
and everyone shall glimpse oneself
and everyone shall find all beautiful

It is not what is reflected
a face imprint on the mirror
Distortion of glass, I wonder

I am scattered like
like dawns and dusks
as a broken naclace of pearls

It was you who held me
integrated and synchronised
close to your heart.....

Always........
