The Lost One! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !



Alone am I,
clueless about the way
to go ahead
no sense is working
no censors to curtail
no signals to stop me
nor guide further
I take a step and
look above
as if the Sun alone shall help me ahead
I am moving since my legs are itching
I am gaining pace since I am young and living
yet, my goals are missing my brains
I am not thinking
since thoughts are nomore an inkling
I am stunned,
oh no, I am frozen
my ideas nil
my intentions had nobody to kill
I watch every one march ahead
race defeating
the weaker ones
I look behind and let go ahead
the poor crippled ones
who cant meet with the stronger ones
I wonder why should they feel bad
for nature's curse why they feel sad.

Where are the trees growing?
Up, Up, Up
Where are the roots growing?
Down, Down, Down
the branches left and right
they give no clue to which side I should go

Where are the clouds going?
they cool down into rains
and the breeze take them into lanes
they donno, they too have the wind to guide
I am a human with a heart and a brain
I think hence I cant go
stuck up between materialists and matter
Spirits and Spirit intakers
Musicians and Music
Politicians and Politics
Money and Money minded ones
Mothers and Surrogates
FAthers and Fatherless
Men and Brutes
Do I need Money
to live or to die?
Do I need Love
to mate or to hate?
Do I need life
to sleep or to wake up
Sleeping life is a waste
Waking up you are a Tragedy keepsake..........
