STRANDED

Just inspired by a small incident that took place during a recent trip

Here I am, Stranded in the middle of nowhere

Looking around while sitting in my car

Searching for a road that leads somewhere

I panic as I think of thoughts so bizarre.

 

I have my windows rolled down and the music loud

Trying to figure out where exactly I went wrong

I am so confused my mind`s like a raging storm cloud     

Wishing that reading a map was easy as learning a song.

 

I am still looking around and can`t seem to find a road

All I see are growing trees and the open sky

For once I wished I was Lazing around at my abode

Yet here I am stranded in the hill really high.

 

Suddenly my car slows down and stops

I look and find that it`s an empty tank

I am struck with fear as my heart drops

I find myself stranded by a river bank.

 

There seemed to be no way out

The river bank was the dead end

I move out and sigh as I see a trout

As it jumps and swims with a friend.

 

I forget that it is no fun to be alone

Travelling around without a comrade

To be stranded in a place unknown

with a friend wouldn`t be as bad

Yeah exactly, friends make our life easier. No matter how strong we are, how independent we are, times do come in life when we crave for company. Nicely written. Keep writing :)
