A Stray Ghost
Standing... EMPTIED
Like a ghost from nowhere
An alien from the outer space
A demonic angel from heaven...
Do I belong here?
Standing in front of the MIRROR
Looking at my reflection
"WHO ARE YOU?"
Pointing my index finger
To the nose of the being in the reflecting object
"AM I YOU?"
No one to response
No answer to be heard
" DO I KNOW MYSELF? "
This image in front of my being
Is now forcing me to say SOMETHING
To explore what and who's within my body
WHO IS WITHIN ME?
This reflection pulling my soul
Getting my Life from my Living Mind...
As if I'm USELESS!
Suddenly,
SOMEONE with the hoarse voice said...
Living here in Earth
Without knowing the REAL YOU
Is like living with just a SHADOW
Killing yourself like a GHOST
Searching for a PEACEFUL DEATH.
---- " A STRAY GHOST FROM NOWHERE"
