Analysis of Lost Teen

OrchidMe 2006 (Delhi)



"Hate", indeed a strong word...
I never knew, how bad it could hurt.
"Tears", they tore me apart...
Eventually, after falling, I had a great start.
It took me some time, to gain my strength back,
It is the love of people around me, that I lack.

Oh! You really think?
It's another heartbreak of a teenager!
But to what depth, my heart always sinks,
When it hits me, there's no more "us" or "our"
It's not just, that one single person
The bond with whom has already been worsen.

But now, I've lost myself completely,
Oh! all this time, I've been nothing but silly!
How much of a mess, I've now become?
It hurts, there's only the moon and no sun.

"Hate", indeed a strong word...
Now I'll use this on him,
Who has shattered my whole world!
And made my life colourless and dim.
"Tears", they tore me apart...
Losing confidence, losing myself,
It was him, who introduced me to this art.
