Hollow Me...

I am a designer item.
I paint myself in all hues
portraying to the world
the pretty me.
I love this model,
adore the adulation,
obsessed with the frenzy
temporarily
forgetting
it is all an illusion -
I am hollow within.

    Thanks Sandra. Yes, most of what we think about ourselves especially the hi-funda thoughts are merely illusions - a creation of the arrogant part of us. Don't you think so?

    Thanks Harshad. That's what most of think of ourselves. Yes, we are unique considering that each soul is different but not that special that we loom large on the horizon...
