Who Am I?

Posted on by Ishita Gupta

Who am I?

A wilted flower on the sidewalk
A lone tear amidst many
I seem to have lost my essence
In life’s unfair journey.

Who am I?

A thorn in a basket of flowers
A black smear on white
In my relentless pursuit of happiness
I’m stuck somewhere between the lines.

Who am I?

A bug drenched in rain
A torn page of a book
I can only see grief
Everywhere I look.

Who am I?

A dove without wings
A lock without a key
I am on a lost track that leads
To the inner depths of the seas.

Who am I?

  5. Very interesting thoughts.
    May I share a thought if you do not mind.
    Life is a tough journey but the only way to live it is:
    One must always stay positive because any negative or pessimistic emotion drains our energies and leaves us less prepared to face the challenges of life. This is one of the biggest lessons I have learnt in my life. I have no doubt that with your talent you can do wonders for your fellow beings. Best wishes. Please excuse me if my comments have in any way hurt you.
