I tried…
I checked if it’s a broken mirror, unclear
For his smile was bigger than what I wear
When I told him a lie and said ‘I swear’-
His smile told me ‘Don’t you dare’
He never spoke the words of praise
When I did many good deeds of grace
Nor he yelled at my ill willing thoughts
But his stare was like a thousand darts
Well he knows me more than I know him
A friend as a dolphin in the ocean I swim
My only company till I should reach the shore
My conscience is his voice till I could hear no more.
– Srirangam Ramesh
