In-Sane?

Dreams of a being, beyond the radius of our obsolescence,

Captured his interest of a time beyond our existence.

Thrown around through ideas of Universes,

A mere semblance from all his known books and verses.

Tired and exhausted mentally to the core,

Immobilized, he felt for the first time by his imagination and more.

Parallel lives he led as per his intelligence,

Yet, the ideas of universes to him, made no sense.

Stricken with panic and unrest to no avail,

He could not stop thinking; his thoughts were his own jail.

His eyes quivered, as he reminisced moments when he was criticized,

Baffled and blundered in his own fallacy, he realized,

He had lived ten lives, belonging to none of them,

He woke up from his reverie tied to a bed in an asylum.
