Poetry? Me?

My vain attempt at poetry when I was 17 or 18. Found it again just now and here it is.

"Lost" is a place I have chosen to be.

A spot between "here" and "there."

A little beyond "Yes i can see"

and "that's nice, but I don't care."



It's not a place that i want to stay

but there are times i wish i could

I go there when I can't find my way

Or whenever I'm misunderstood.



So if you see that look in my eye

don't rush me,worry or fret.

I will come back but as hard as i try

I don't want to come back yet.

Really beautiful...I think everyone can relate to it owing to experiences in their lives at some point or the other...

PS: if you give me the rights, i would love to give it a chord structure and make a song out of it ;)

Hey, I like this poem. Especially since "Lost" is a place everyone visits when misunderstood and I am more often than not misunderstood.

I like the last paragraph the most.It is elegant and simple.

Yes, the inner compulsion to make the poem rhyme with an a-b-a-b sequence shows that it could be one of your earlier attempts at poetry. But damn, that's deep for a 17-year old! In no way a vain attempt, that I can definitely say.

Background guitar tune will come soon. ^^
