Unfolded Life

She looked through the window
and saw an outer light
guiding to somewhere, she did not realize...
But it reflected joy on the inside
bringing back memories 
in a flash of an eye...
And by then she wondered...
“Have you ever lived a life,
and thought that you are alive,
and no matter what, you will survive
and then you opened your eyes
and read all the lies
that were hidden in between the lines
of each passing day of your life...”
She looked around where the answers are found
but she could not read 
what it folds indeed...
She is lost in a world, saying no word
just getting old,
having some memories to be told...
Yet sometimes standing alone,
in a life that was once thought
to be lived and it is turning to be
full of ambiguity...
