Lost


I felt stranded in the ocean

Waves lashing by

Reflecting the nauseating sun

With Davy Jones’s chest calling me

With the lonely islands beckoning for company


This way or that

Where to go?


Here, there or nowhere


The world’s a big sphere – no corners, no ends


I walk the path –A path created

Or should I take a path unknown – a path I create

The path of forks, twists, turns and bends


Obstacles plenty trip me down

Raging mountains and clouding forests

Evil forces of darkness found


Guiding bird – misguided by the “too much”

Too much to listen

To much to see

It clouds the reason

The rationale failing

I look at the senseless logic… trying to create sense


Like Atlas’s trick – Fooling the Herculean task

There is so much to be deceived


So much to overlook

The veil of glitter over the grey

And the real brightness fading away


O! Mighty one

Let the lights on – the fire alight

Let the path glow

Shining through the forests

Lest there be darkness and puzzled faces

Wondering just where to go?

All lost in this world of yours…



Author's Notes- OK, so this poem may sound so much like those philosophical ones and I agree that it is philosophical... but i wrote it when i was all baffled as to which college should i join? which stream should I take and who is giving me the right suggestion - whom to trust?

there are so many routes out there and as many puzzled faces too. let's all try to help them

untill then...Sayonara
