It was a murky twilight
I was engaged in a conversation with my solitude
I asked why is it that
When my life seems totally lost
When I find myself trapped in an unfathomable maze
When I need some guidance
When I need a brainwave
And I turn back with an expectant heart
I get shaken when I do not find even a single soul
I keep on looking at each nook and corner
But at last I find myself totally deserted
My solitude replied, you are wrong my dear friend
Others may give you advice, others may inspire you
But the final decision lies in your hands
You may find many companions in the journey of life
After some time they vanish unexpectedly
You have to uncover the mystery of life
And conclude this voyage on your own
When no one is around you, you may definitely find me
I give you the needed space and time to ponder
Do believe in yourself
Your decision is the best for you
Do utilize me and solve the enigma of life
