I Met Myself Poem by Sheraz Ahmed

In a room
In darkness
In a loneliness
In silence
At night
In sadness
I found him
The one who lives there
Some where inside me

The one who hides
Hides for no reason
Hides because of a fear
A fear of losing himself in a world

The world that demands smartness
The world that steals innocence
That's why he stays inside

He fears to come out
He talks less
He remains quite
He told me all that
I listened him

He was so clear
He was too near
He was so like me
Infact, he was the real me
I met myself
