muhurter por muhurto shei chokher adalei thaktam .

Scheduled for Intersection

There's fire in your eyes
Like I've seen in none else
And I'm drawn yet again
For my burns aren't deadly yet.

I'm unaware of the toxin
That creates my weakness
My world still lacks the medicine,
And as usual, I keep giving in.

How I wish to meet
The woman of my dreams
The grace, the stare, the skin
All in one miraculous being!

Oh wait! Did I see you recently -
On the bus, or staircase or canteen?
The way you looked at me
Still haunts and questions the reason to live.

Should I step up and ask you out?
But I never do that for that's not me!
When it comes to facing you again,
My arrogance vanishes into an abyss.

Hoyto kobi-i thik,

"jeta chilona seta na paoai thak,
sob pele nosto jibon!"

ba hoyto na.

The 2nd Life

He came with words
In a world of silencers...
              They created domains
             Of love, separation, faith;
             They surrounded passion
             With bows and cannons.

He decided not to fight
In a civil war for rights;
The gunmen had other ideas,
Burned his words on a pyre.
Yet with the little life left
He strode a few more steps.

Where did he reach?
What did he gain?
Is he among ruins
Or washing others' shame?
                      Answers belong only to him,
                      Cascading within, yet again.
