The Man Got Lost



In the middle of the road
With dry lips, watery eyes
I’m still there
But the man got lost

Unfixed the air, the weather and the storm
But the stationary I and the road
I’m still there
But the man got lost

Staring at the long path
Under the roof of the dark night
I’m still there
But the man got lost

With untold insoluble doubts
And carrying the darkening helplessness
I’m still there,
But the man got lost

Recollecting the unforgettable memories
With repressing pain and agony
I’m still there,
But the man got lost

In the middle of the road,
I’m still there,
But the man got lost…..
