You?

By Bhawana

Manipulating my emotions

Who are you?

"Me?", I thought trying to be honest

"How long can u keep yourself unbroken?

Someday you'll have to leave this nest"

She said, leaving my brain voiceless

I tried to talk but she keeps screaming

I felt so numb after that fall

Yet those words keep trying seep in deeper

As my own voice grows weaker

I was just as angry as I was afraid

So, I took the chance and punched her face only to realize it was a mirror as I stared at her face shattered but clear…
