I Did Not See My Face In the Mirror

One morning, I awoke from the sleep, Like all those previous days. And after all daily routines were done, I planned for a morning walk. I knew, everything was fine. Tooth brush to the cup of tea, Cloth to the walking shoes. Everything line by line. And walking in the morning is good for health. But I felt something's not fine. While I was on walk, I experienced My worst day. That was a futile walk for me. And a restless walk. As restless as the situation of being Chased by the German Shepherd. Everywhere, I could see faces mocking at me. To whoever I met, I felt like, they hate me. My face, I felt to be ugly. No one likes me and everyone hates me. The day was not good. That was truly a bad day for me. Then, I sat under the green leaves of banyan tree, Standing by the edge of the Dark blue river, aside my walking road. I then called back my whole day, And whole of my daily routines. I tried and tried, to find the cause for those nasty feelings. And finally realized; I didn't see my face in the silver mirror.
