Narcissist

Another whimsical sunrise
Another excitement of unpredictability
Good morning dear me!

It has started raining outside
Should I take another short nap?
“No!” says the inexorable urge
Of feeling the cool of water drops on my face

I picture the autumn leaves getting greener
With the touch of every droplet.
I want to step out to witness the sight

To stretch my hands and feel the rain

But

I am stopped by a conspicuous figure
Creeping into my vision

I look
I stare
I gaze

It’s my own reflection in the window glass
A picture perfect as per my senses!
I feel overwhelmed to be possessing m
I try to reprehend
And fail successfully

I drop the idea of going into the rains
I can’t let water haze away the candidness
I can’t let go of myself out of my sight
I don’t want this supreme pleasure to end

So here I am
All set to fall in love
With none

but Myself.
