Lost... I Am

Walking down the memory lane,
A dark and sinister experience..
With few dim lights-
Shining in its own way;
Signifying happiness in my lonely den.

Lost I am,
In my own thoughts, deeds and works..
Which once seemed so correct-
But now I know they were wrong..
I repent but can't return.
A dark road ahead of me.
And I searching for light.

Darkness has claimed my world.
My sky overcast -
With dark clouds of some unseen nightmares..
Clouds without a silver lining.
The branches from my past,
Has leaned over my path...
Making it difficult for me to move.
I can't see ahead..
My eyes tired of finding an escape root.
I know not where I am heading,
Rather "Destiny" my so called guide is pulling me.

Actions bring about results??
Or results are just pre-destined??
And actions are just another excuse-
To prove that I have failed..
That success isn't my cup of tea!

I know not...

I am lost and that's the truth ..
I am confused..

Confusion,
The child of loneliness,
And the rival of Confidence -
Has conquered my soul.
Has squeezed my heart,
And has chiseled my dreams off my sub-conscious self.
Making me a mere spectator,
An inanimate being-
In my own world.

Life is pushing me down a plane,
A dark tunnel..
And me moving down the gradient,
Without resisting, without complaining.
Trying to be lost in my Lost World,
In my Happiness; In my dreams once seen.
In my Dark world made by ME!
