When my voice stops for ever <br />There will be no tumults of words ever. <br />The stars will still twinkle and rivers will still die. <br /> <br />When my voice stops I shall dive into your oblivion <br />And in another costume someone will impersonate me. <br />The hymns will still be heard and the fresh idols will surface. <br /> <br />When my voice stops a lone sheep may bleat <br />As it stands near the tender leaves aplenty. <br />I think it may bleat for a while and cease to do so thenceforth. <br /> <br />When my voice stops those who loved me once for a while <br />May shed a few drops of tears innocent <br />And I may turn on my tomb for a sigh!<br /><br />M.D Dinesh Nair<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/when-my-voice-stops-3/
