The last december

Ngullie 1998 (Nagaland)



It was in the evening, late december
The fire burnt like an inferno!
Children with their red noses
giggling and playing around the Warmth.
There was Laughter and Happiness on everyone's face!
It was the best time for their family; may be the last - No one knew!

Time flew by,
Two souls for heaven, together, is a selfish gain!
Golden palace no doubt added two stars.
Yet the Princess lost two precious souls!
 
They broke their promises.
Everything became blured and shattered.
River flows on her face and
The last thing She'll remember, when the casket gets covered with mud-
 "Will be the night they laugh their worries away -
  The december which will never come back and will never be the same again!!!
