Ifs Of Life

There was this thought,

Only if I was like this,

Seeking loneliness,

Liking that void in my room,

Only if I was one among the few,

To believe in myself,

That I am different,

The game changer,

The only "I",

With my individuality,

That doesn't change,

Time and then,

Only if I was like that mirror,

That reflects things opposite,

Be it love or hatred,

Respect or arrogance,

Only if I was the philosopher,

To profess what is,

Right and wrong,

To inculcate knowledge,

Only if I was the only,

Human being who remained,

The same when I was born,

Till my last breath.
