नशा

At the mere touch of a needle...
A strange feeling engulfed my brain
I floated on air, in a cloudy boat
I trickled down like the rain
I could taste music with my throat
I could see the colors of the rainbow swirl
Within my eyes patterns were formed
And in the distance, a beautiful girl
And little butterflies around her swarmed

I traveled through both time and space
Memories I could touch and feel
A gust of wind did the waltz on my face
The ground was merging with my heel
It was fun, though I felt a little dizzy
But did i just see the lights just dim?
Or in my pleasure was I so busy?
That I ignored a pain so grim???

And suddenly the curtains begin to fall
For every hue takes on a shade of grey
A shadow falls upon us all
The Sun is deprived of its every ray
Death begins to feel like birth
Your brain stops before you ask why
A giant scorpion devours the Earth
The light fades away... and so do I!!!
