Lost..

Verse: Ravprinderya

I walk down the same path time and time again

the lone pebbled path as if i am lost

i dont want to walk down but do it all the same

my person keeps changing - a daughter, a mother, a sister,a friend but never a lover

no one seeks me that way

i walk fast most times

and trip many too

the grazing and bruises soon heal

i brush the dust and leaves off my hair

how come i get lost everytime

i wonder and giggle

how silly of me!!i know it well like the back of my hand

but i dont know whats on the inside the lines on my palm

those lines i would like to tread

but the moment i reach them they fade away and i m lost again
