The white shroud covered her body; And In his house the prayer was chanted and a sound of suppressed tears filled the air. The water droplets touched her lips washing away the pain, making her peaceful smile even more prominent. And His body was bathed, covered with new clothes. Six coins, some letters he wrote her and chocolates ;she loved them, she's taking them with her. And One diary, kites that she sent him on their 15 th anniversary;these are the last things he wanted to take with him. Cherry blossoms caressed her cheeks as the fire started to burn the edge of her kimono. And White water lilies looks at silently as his coffin passed by . Her fire coloured the sky scarlet And His burial created the portal of a motionless land. Her ashes remained And His gravestone kept telling "Maybe in next life .... " It was not a day to rain for. Yet, it rained. Somewhere in this rain, A promise was kept. A promise of years back, Back when 'He' and 'She' were children, Back when being together was happiness; Back when..... this happiness created love.. It rained, The world was quite ; Only the sky echoed her promise to the land ...... " I'll follow you even through hell.... I'll be chasing you wherever you go. " There she goes again..... ....... Chasing for him.

Converging Death
She celebrated her funeral Getting wet in the raindrops. The wounded moths coloured Her eye lashes red. The monochromes of Her own shadow Clamped her legs in the black sky, As she tried to fly once again. Her shadow stood behind her, Saying, "So even you can dream! " She shook her head knowing There's no escape this time. She smiled as tears rolled down her eyes When her shadow stabbed her, Saying, "How dare you dream again! " Her black blood splattered all over her body, As she kept smiling palely Turning her surrounding Into a combination of binary colours Of black and white. She looked up for the last time, To the little cyan At the corner of the sky Which was yet to be mono chromed. And, She fell on her knees For the last time Releasing every last piece Of her soul. And, she understood, "Death Is Cruel And Healing At the same time"

Monochromatic Funeral
Tears Of Ocean Always remain unseen for they fade away in their ow(n)ess. Screams Of Hurricane Always remain unheard for they listen to their echo creatin(g)iggles. Kindness Of Fire Always remain unchanted for they get burnt midway of their birt(h)earth. Beauty Of Moon Always remain unnoticed for it gets hidden in its own uglines(s)ofar. Scars Of Silent wars Always remain ignored for it is to be kept a secret for fear'(s)ake. Words Of Love Sometimes remain unsaid for that's how you insisted to for(m)emories.

Unsaid words
Blindness evaporating from a child's mind, As the radius of the circle increases in the black triangle, Little by little the white paper get soaked in red ink; The child screamed in fear of seeing RED for the first time. The paper cramped more and more as the graphite of the pencil got wet in red ink , The child feared darkness all her life; But, now she fears RED more , The cramped paper is now back to normal, Though the redness is still constant, And, another thing didn't change, The fear in her eyes, The fear of knowing unknown.
