Unseen

I feel it
I see it
Yes, right now
It's opposite me
Without a mirror
Don't know how!


It's a gloomy face
I touch its wrinkles
I watch its misery
I taste its salty tears


A mapless face
Like a field after
a heavy rain
A melancholic face
Like a patient after
a terrible pain


I feel it
I see it
Like a ghost
Appears,
then disappears
Smiles,
then cries
Still, there is no mirror
But horror!
