Remember not I that when was it last
That I let myself lose, drift into my past
That I lost my sanity to behave insane
Went out for a stroll or bathed in the rain
Or to celebrate my day I took out some while
When was it last that I had an effortless smile?
Time I have not to pamper my soul
Accomplish I something only to set another goal
Deaf have I become to hear my heart weep
Have no moments to cherish or memories to keep
Dead with emotions I am alive
I wanna live and not just survive
Where am I going, from where did I start?
Mindlessly going on, just dragging my cart

too many inversions.. i like it otherwise! a 'pristine' read indeed!
Well written, Priyanka! You have clearly managed to convey your thoughts across!! Only a CA Article can write a poem about missing life and it's essence so well!! ;)
"Mindlessly going on, just dragging my cart" Beautiful lines, amazing resonance! :)
nice poem with some beautiful lines like "When was it last that I had an effortless smile?" and, as already pointed out by Janvi, "Mindlessly going on, just dragging my cart".. and again as pooja has said, too many inversions take away a little from the poem but a nice read on the whole
