Me Myself

Yesterday hover over my today
As animal meet the hunter, I meet my
Past in future, my
Soul swim like a fish in a pool of tears
I look up with tearful eyes
Like a dying mouse
What made my life worse to this
Extent?, what made my life worse
More than this?.......

At first it was mystery to me
Like a person groping in the dark, that's me
But latter I realized, me
Myself, a good looking girl, me
Myself stylishness, gorgeous, elegance
I overwhelmed with my beauty
Hardly am I satisfy with six men a day

Yesterday hover over my today
As animal meet the hunter, I meet my
Past in future, my
Soul swim like a fish in a pool of tears
I look up with tearful eyes
Like a dying mouse
What made my life worse to this
Extent?, what made my life worse
More than this?, me
Myself, people warned me but
I listen not,
I thought I was great
I overwhelmed with my beauty
Like an arrogant monkey
I meet my past in future
Like lie meet truth on his posture
When I am to work or do something important for my future
I thought I am the most perfection, I depend on my beauty, me
Myself, I though beauty determine the future
I thought it was I alone

my beauty lures me
To drawn, I left in amidst of lonely war like a solder in the midst of enemy
I left amidst of sameness and sorrow, me
Myself, I thought it would last forever
I thought it would last than ever

Oh! What a pity, regret does stay at the back, if
There is another chance, if
There is chance for another life
I will hold it tight
Like a jewellery hold it pendant

Your words speak in an elusive abstract voice that supplies the catalyst to spark further thought. English is obviously not your mother tongue, so it's a little rough in spots, (read it out loud), but your words speak for themselves and tell your story well. Emile.
