I'm fenced by the circle that loves me
Yet I want to feel I'm abandoned in the murmuring mob.
I have enough reasons for smiles
Yet I want to be drowned in the thoughts of blues.
I'm well aware of the candour that I'm seeing
Yet I want to close my eyes to feel the darkness that never surrounds.
I want to believe not everything ends like a tragedy
Yet I want to be sad and sulking over situations that are just imaginary!!

Ease the fire
(Poem in caption)

Ankhoo mein neend nahi.. Bas tumse milne ka intazaar hai..
Ankhoo mein neend nahi.. Bas tumse milne ka intazar hai..
Apne ghar mein ho kar bhi.. Bas tumse door hone ka ehsas hai..

Pyaar dil mei chhip jata hai
Labo pe aake ruk jata hai
Saanso mei thum jata hai
par..
Pyaar aankhon se dikh jata hai

A Lover's Odyssey: A Prayer to Athena
(A Septa Tanka)

Thou, born of Zeus's brow
With a shining spear and bow:
Thou Demons address—
O the only Sage Goddess—
With but calm and skyey craft.

Stuck is my vessel
B'twixt Scylla and Charybdis,
At the bright Black Sea
That I can't see my sails's see
To be , or now not to be?

Rome stole all the gods from Greece,
And they changed all of them.
The most heartbreaking was Minerva,
They made a rock from a gem.
They took away Athena's wisdom,
They took away her power,
They threw her down from her throne,
Athena plotted revenge by the hour.
She lost her status as goddess of wisdom,
She lost her status as goddess of war.
They took away her strength and intelligence,
She was no longer in legends and lore.
I know how Athena is,
Never take away a queen's crown.
Maybe it was because of Athena's wrath,
That Rome finally burned down.

The air could sense her presence
The earth could not
hold but reminiscence;
the glory of the warrior passing by
as the victorious sword
of Athena tore the sky
The birds would cry
the song of dauntless;
as the brave embraced
her scars like a goddess
The Gods above could not hold but;
looked at Athena with awe
The magic they'd been looking for;
was in an angel with devil's claw...

Beauty and wisdom is the rarest and the most most sought after combination,
that's why the 'little knowledge' shouts every nook and corner.
Among those chatters and uproars I hearken to the profound whispers of the 'Athena'.
In a world which is the parade ground for 'made up' sylphs and nymphs, I search for the incarnation of the 'Aphrodite'.
In a world full of self proclaimed, self marketing Genius (es(??) I search for the lotus that's the seat of 'Saraswathi'
I'm in search of that one...

In the world
full of toxic feelings and thoughts,
You came in my life as detoxifier and cleanser.
Just like sun removes darkness,
you came as sunshine to my dark nights.
You became my Guiding light, Athena.

যদি সব স্মৃতি আঁকড়ে আবারও ফিরে আসিস
জানতে চাইব শুধু

"এখনো ভালবাসিস ?"
