In life's illusion I am lost
Unable to make my boat row
In vast ocean of world's desires and pleasures
I go with the life's flow………………..
Born free yet everywhere in chains,
Life is mine, but not in my control
Bound to chains that don't let me go
Along the path to my dole………….
Tried hard to reach that heaven of peace
The place inhabited by my lord
but Janus closed its pearly gates,
and took away the bosom of my god…………..
and the ocean swallowed me, like a clod
ceased my beats, and hid me under its sod………

Wow a young poet make a big poem, it sound awesome, think you will grow bigger as a writer anytime soon_Soul
Great thread in in the hands of a master weaver! 10 out of 10!
Really like this one, a fantastic poem, take a look at my poem called, Lost, it's in the same vain as yours.
often do we get lost in our lives, , , but one day we realize that we were never really lost, , , those tough days that we have are like a source that feeds us for rest of our lives, , , those are the moments where we learn the most, , , , a beautiful poem, , , i like the ending the most, , , ,
It's nice and thought provoking. We row the boat of our life in the ocean of time, but the control is not in our hands.
At 16 you are on a fast track to becoming a gifted poet. Rich with imagery and metaphors and many profoundly written lines- a very advanced write, very good
