Old Mirror and Her Lil Girl

She is silent & she plays Mostly she has books before her face She rarely come to me & ran away as fast as she could I know her since her childhood She is my Lil girl & I'm an old mirror of her room One day she came to me Having beautiful smile & gleaming eyes Singing romantic songs & flying As if she isn't watching mirror Like she is playing lead role in her favorite fairy tale I felt her crazy & myself amazed 'cause I realized My Lil girl who is actually shy Fall in love with a guy One day she came to me With wetty eyes, throat filled Uninterested in everything Ist time focusing her face & thinking As if she isn't watching a mirror Like she is a cop beating herself, arresting someoneelse I felt sad & she was depressed Then I realized My Lil girl, so lovely Failed & Fooled in love, badly One day she came to me Pushed her eyebrows up Brought leader's smile on her face One hand up & delicately waved As if she isn't watching a mirror Like she is addressing the whole world through me I felt proud, she looks great & finally I realized My Lil girl unknowingly Just growing up slowly... &...slowly

Sakshi Singh - you, beautiful, intelligent, soulful young woman, are full of ancient wisdom. You write from the soul, maybe an 'old soul' ...beautiful story here. You are a very gifted soul...write from the higher self always. You are a gifted and talented "WRITER". Thank you for sharing. I have added this to my favourites. Leanne. x
