Finish in Ten

 

Contest by Nette Onclaud

Mirror of Nightmare

           I was trying to go to my working place.
          But I have left my job, long years back.
             Was I going to visit my parents?
         I knew the directions so well.
          I walked and walked in confusion.
            Street networks looked like a maze.

     I left the idea of going any where.
     Better to be back to my own home.
     I could not recollect my own address.
           I was totally lost.
