When Black Overpowers !!!

Rainbow made its way
For one last time.
Alas ! I could see nothing.
The harder I tried,
More harder were I pushed away
Away from those green paddy fields,
Those budding red roses and the blue sky
With stars that winked shyly
And nothing made sense that day.
No life seemed colourful,
It still stayed dark and black.
The day brought no cheer
and the darkness got me relaxed.
The day can't get any late
When the colours you praise will be gone,
The day when your life will no longer be painted good,
The day when you can no longer touch the red roses,
The day when you're finally gone,
The day when Black overpowers your life,
The day when darkness overpowers the World...

If I ain't alive tomorrow..

It was not many days back
when I was half asleep, and all at once,
this thought suddenly popped into my head.
"Just in case, If I ain't alive tomorrow...
Won't things stay the same on earth ?
Would anyone ever miss me ?
Would anyone ever care to call me back to life ?
Would anyone shed a single drop of tear ? "
As I picture that happening day,
I lay waiting in my coffin,
I don't find those familiar smiles
that faked to be so true.
But I see a loving couple
weeping for their daughter.
I see few of my close comrades
trying hard to bid a Bye.
My eyes caught its sight on a little angel,
who calls up memories of our childhood together.
I believe, like many,
the day is not very far, and as I get ready,
I hope to earn a few hearts
that would shed tears on my death,
that would care enough to call me back.
And who knows, what if,
God let me return to this place ?
And finally, to the fake ones,
try turning up, have a look at me,
once before I leave.
All these thoughts keep haunting me
for long hours of the day,
But then, I thought, If I ain't alive,
Would it really matter ?
