She lived in her mind

She covered distances by metro
but travelled miles in her mind.
She flipped pages of her book
but turned thoughts in her mind.
She played music from her phone
but listened to voices in her mind.
She lived in her mind.
Mind was her place to be.

She was chewing gum,  

but was also chewing over her life.
She drank water from her bottle,
but swallowed regrets she had in her life
She closed her eyes to darkness
but found enlightened by hope inside.
She was returning from work,
but getting back to her life.

(On lighter note)
She was at rajiv chowk
but felt alone inside.
She had to be at anand vihar 
but boarded city centre metro
she didn't realise.
