Last Smile...
Frivolling after i lost everythig in life,
I heard somebody moaning nearby.
I discovered a lil girl,
Who sat all alone in this bizarre world.
Her checks were wet and eyes were red,
I couldnt stop asking what makes her sad?
She was collapsing couldnt ever lift her head,
Had i been been late, she would haev been dead.
I got tensed, wanted to help her anyhow,
Wasnt so easy when i didnt even knew my whereabout.
Put to test, i said now its mine,
run just run kept shoutin' my mind.
I kept searchin' by the time it was evening five,
When i first smelled the village life.
O my God, i found it atlast,
Could only say."Theres a girl there...please do it fast."
They were my last hope, my last smile,
I fell on the ground, eyes open, keep looking at the sky for a while.
I slept and woke up some couple of times,
Only worry was if they could make it on time.
Yes they did, i heard them coming,
Nobody came to me and i said nothing.
She'll be okay and live my life,
What about me, whose been living for so long, with no reson to stay alive.
...He died with a last smile on his face,
When villagers came to him for help, it was just too late.
