Black

over and over...pondering again...
closed my eyes...then opened them again...
the shimmering stars like scattered grains of sand
what makes them beautiful!?! maybe the distance? i don't understand!!
or do u? do u know y they're like diamonds fallen from a sack!?!
don't go into the tangents...coz this effect is just coz of the Black!!
that small ball giving light, bringing a day...
sun? is it "sun" did u just say?
maybe for u, but for me, it just ends the night
starts another day replete with a tired plight...
looking at it, when i close my eyes, it gets Black!!
opening my eyes again...the light comes back...
too much of Black, Black, Black... have i gone insane!?!
maybe. yes, i have...coz i've just broken my window pane!!
why is there anger? where is my sense of creed?
i think i have lost them all on the last turn of greed!!!
"that justifies my attraction to Black" they say!!
mundane maniacs engrossed in their own melancholic frays
judging me according to their "rational human minds" stuffed with grass
yeah! maybe they've got all rights to satisfy their displeasured arse!!
savage animals worse than the four-paws
"Black" is just a color...no allegorical clause!!
when "Red" is for love, inspite of a stain
when "Blue" is cool, even though its for vain
when "Purple" is royal, though now it shouldn't be!!
then y is "Black" just so familiar with pain and agony!?!
from Black we all begin...
and into Black we all go...
still useless allegories which superstitions don't let to forgo!
still scared of it, still its bad...
y am I advocating!?!? even I don't know!!!

Black is the real essence of an absolute blank containing every color of life...a life starts from black (as through dark desires) & ends at black (as a dead body can't see anything)...this color not only accumulates all colors but also puffs them out & still remains BLACK...thanx a ton for advocating my favorite color!!! excellent poem!!
