Prateek Sehgal - A Mirror

Look here! I am your mirror,
Its here only that you see yourself.
Only I can show you your smile, your tears...
Your truth, your dreams.
Then why.......?
Why am I not a part of them...?
Why am I neither the truth nor the dream?
‘Cause.... may be I am inert
And a mere ‘thing’ you need.....
But I desire....!
Yes, I desire...!
As I see what all you see,
And I see what all you be...
