THE QUIET MIRROR : Rajeshri Senapati Gogoi

THE QUIET MIRROR 

Rajeshri Senapati Gogoi 

We walk with masks of polished stone,

In crowded halls, yet deeply lone,

Collecting truths we fear to speak,

Behind a pulse, controlled and meek.

​But there’s a gold within the grit,

A pilot light—long may it sit—

That flickers when the ego fails,

And strips away the heavy veils.

​It is the hand that doesn’t pull away,

The courage in the "I’m not okay,"

The messy, trembling, honest art

Of opening a locked-up heart.
