I hid my tears when Maa asked me,
"How are you my son", wish I could tell
" I am shattered", but I said,"better
Like never before". Because her smile
is the only thing that have kept me alive.
Now, the neon signs flashing bright ,
Those gifts, the chandeliers the garden
Everything that you're cheerful for are not
Colorful to me but just black and white.
