Yellow rose that signifies
The Platonic Love

The frame on the wall speaks to me, in a language lost in memories of her. It was as though looking into a mirror, except that there wasn't one. She loathed them for they highlighted her flaws. She felt that the mirrors laughed at her, calling her a chimerical creature. Hence, she loved midnight when everything was dark and pointing out one' flaws was a difficult task.
It was madness though, for the flakes of winter were announcing their arrival. It was the end of November. The chilly weather worked like a seed for our soulful proximity. It wasn't physical, just plain platonic.
Never in my wildest dreams I thought that the most romantic thing in this world would be walking down the road under moonlight with cold winds covering us like a cosy blanket. A subtle yet dignified way of expressing admiration. Although, it is nothing but pure madness that makes one do certain things that seem frivolous at first but start to make sense once a revelatory realisation occurs. Of nothing but a feeling, a deep and pure feeling.
Love is always depicted as a flight of stairs. One goes upwards when a certain chronology is followed. That is how they do it these days, a pre-planned chronological procedure. Gone are those days when one could feel the heat from a distance. When actual fireworks used to take place, bestowing one with the feeling of satisfaction which can be mirrored when November descends into December. Transcending into a world that is astray whilst in the company of tranquility.
//Like a native shelter it protects us with appease of bewitchingly dignified intimacy//

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALLIf No mirrors
Who would accompany me?
When in solitude..
Who would reflect me?
Who would hear me?
The water would!
But what if it's drought!?

©gra_chiwriteups7 0If the world had no mirrors
If the world had no mirrors, we would be forced to look at ourselves differently. With nothing to show you how you are on the outside, you would be forced to look at yourself from the inside. Forget about how your hair looks, forget about fixing your makeup. How's your heart? Is your soul pretty? What improvements can you make? If the world had no mirrors, we would be forced to work on the core of what makes us human, to focus on what matters and forget about this skin casing for a bit. If the world had no mirrors, we would realise that our true beauty comes from within.

Mirrors...it shows us what we wanted to see, what we wanted to fix, and what we wanted to change. Its only a meanse of reassurance. Its to reassure us that what we are now, what we have now is real and not an illusion.
Even if mirrors does not exist, that doesnt mean that we lose our self reassurance. As long as we are self conscious, we can still reassure ourselves that we are still us. We're still what we are, we still have the things that we have.
#nomirrors @mirakeeMirrors lets us see. But if we disregard our sense of sight and enhance our consciousness and feelings, then rest assured, we are still who we are.
10 0Emptiness
You ain't empty
When all you're filled with is
Emptiness.
From every dimension.
From every direction.
Remember,
When you are not,
the divine is.
But you could not see that all,
in light of dust,
Dust which has amassed on a mirror;
Mirror of your psyche.
Tell me,
How can the mirror mirror then?
How can the mirror reflect then?
And what would it reflect then?
Reflect the dust or reflect what's beneath the dust?
Dust, which the human is made up of.
Beneath the dust, the conscience which interfaces with the divine.
And then the association with divine is what prompts the emptiness.
But who shows this emptiness?
Mirror?
Remember,
Mirror which lies inside can only reflect to the portion lying outside and not the other way around.

SHADOWS OF LIGHT
I get motivation,
The mirror of transformation temptations!
It makes me dream ,
A life of esteem.
It makes me feel,
A shushing of heal.
It makes me love,
The scars of grieve.
It makes me proud,
The one in crowd.
It makes me cry,
The tears don't dry.
I get motivation,
The mirror of transformation temptations!
When I see the bright gaze,
Arise the desire with blaze.
When I see those locks on temple,
Shows that love is so gentle.
When I see the imperfect soul,
It makes me just forget about all.
I get motivation,
The mirror of transformation temptations!
The title make it clear,
The shadow makes it mysterious
And the light makes it delirious!.
16 0 3No mirrors
There is a world with no mirrors
Remorseless and doomed
Shabby kindness auto populated
Because nobody knows
What means groomed
So, ultimately it goes up
And human lives are bloomed
No ego, judgements and flaws
All are striving for everything
And reflections are only assumed..!

What to see
I would know
You are me.
But the world sees
A you
I see a
Me
I becomes an I
You a silent sea.
©writeranavah15 0Life without mirrors,
That would be absolutely divine.
Mirrors are great,
But they come with the side effect of self hatred.
Mirrors used to be good,
Sadly, with the advent of photoshop, we are expected to look like the supermodels.
Without mirrors, I can quit comparing myself,
Quit comparing myself to the world.
A world without mirrors,
Makes for a world of empowered humans.
No mirrors? No problem!

Adieu
Oh, so you're asking why I broke the mirror again?
Yes, I'm aware it was the last one in the house.
Listen. Mirrors shows something called a 'reflection'
Don't be fooled, in truth, it's just an inverted illusion.
And once, long before I met you, I had a reflection...
A personality. Hopes and dreams. An ambition.
Now my soul is lost. You drained the life out of me.
So there's no reflection for the eye to see.
Yes, I'm angry. But I'm dying now, don't you see?
Jagged pieces of glass painted as a crimson filigree
So that's it for me, I think. Adieu.
I won't be needing that mirror anymore.

If there wasn't a mirror maybe I would love my self more,
Maybe there would not be a reflection screaming at my insecurities,
Would the mirror make me feel less confident or will it help me identify the beauty,
But I wonder what does a mirror truly show if not the truth,
The wrinkles of a once beautiful maiden,
The tears of a heartbroken lover
Would they stop if there were no mirrors?
Is it easier to live in denial of things that aren't beautiful,
Or is it easier to accept them as beautiful?
Because what is a mirror if not the reflection of one's own sense,
Maybe we can destroy the mirrors but can we destroy the hate?
Because every eye is a mirror of its own, each thought a reflection,
What is a lifeless mirror doing that
We the living mirrors aren't?

Truly appreciable!!

A mirror tending to reflect your shine,
Yet you find flaws that are completely fine.
It reminds your curves are alright,
Yet you nurture the mays & might.
It intends to show your positive grooves,
Yet you find differences in how your hands move.
But what if there's no mirror tomorrow?
Alas, no self doubt and no sorrow!
Who says you're not beautiful in unkept hair?
If you're natural you're already fair.
Your colour and your size don't bother.
It's always the inner self you smother.
Stop running to style your skin.
Move as if their hearts you want to win.
The world won't remember your face.
It's always the actions you trace.

No Mirrors
No mirrors on the wall
Whom to ask who you are?
Shining through the corners
The broken pieces of the glass
Showing your body
In million shattered segments
But no mirror left to show your complete self
Now, I will see my reflection into the waters
Flowing against the wind & making me move ahead
My fascination with the mirrors ended the day
It was only meant to show how beauty is meant to be kept!
©anewstep
I really admire how the generations prior to us kept love. They never defined love. I mean how these days people are like you didn't do this, didn't do that, then you don't love me. I mean really? Is it that easy to unlove someone? And I agree with you, we have commodified love. It should be based on mutual trust and respect and not material aspects.
Thanks a lot for reading all these old ones, Jaya!
