No mirror reflection can shade my shadow
though, both are signs of my existence...
On the mirror,
my skin is not as fair as yours
but the colour of my shadow is equal to yours!
In the post lunch session,
it makes me happy by enlarging me
to the size of the biggest tree in my courtyard,
and sometimes
it lies under my feet like my little puppy.
On the mirror,
The ugliness of my teeth hurts me,
the deep-buried, dark eyes
stare at me like a snake comes out of its grove
But,
the eyes of my shadow are as bright as yours,
its teeth showers light all over.

One day,
I put my shadow against a mirror.
Mirror gives me back a me in full size
with ugly face, chest, arms and legs.
Now, I know my shadow is a hypocrite!
He carries the same apolitical man that's me
and shows only the shadow of it.

One day,
I met the mirror image of my shadow.
Lovely! Handsome!
It has thirty two heavenly tooth,
two bright eyes,
one well structured nose,
two beautiful waving ears,
one pair of long and powerful hands,
two muscular legs,
Etcetera...

From that day on,
I keep the real me at home.
the mirror image of my shadow
goes out, works, earns, loves and lives.
Yes,
I am only a mirror image of my shadow!
