Paint The World Poem by Nachiketa Deb

Born in a world where
The colors have faded.
Shades of black white and gray
All around as far as sight.
Eyes tire at this distate..
Man mechanised, no time nor
Will to look.
Nature lurkes hidden from
Beholding screened eyes.
While black suits in boardrooms
Speak of naught but more.
Ideas trampled under
Wreached feet of intolerance
The heart is burdened it bleeds
midnight black not red.

it is time for a pilgrimage..
Shed the frail mask of cynicism
And look within you.
deep inside, there lies
A magnificiant paradise, lost.
Where the sun sets as
Lovers hold hands;
where fragrant flowers
Feed the distressed soul.
white canvas and
Multitudes of hues n brush await.

Wrap this world around you
bring out the long forgotten paintbrush,
the colors lie in front
pick the canvas of your world and create!
