“Care to join me for a kill?”
And I did till blood had seized to spill.
Thus, my conscience was killed.
“Care to feel the love of a woman?”
And I felt till love ended and sorrow had begun.
Thus, my heart was killed.
“Care to see heaven and hell?”
And I tripped till I understood everything too well.
Thus both my courage [...]
There are not 2 but 3 sides.
One, of the people themselves
One, of the people who they say it to,
One, of the world and how they perceive it.
YouTube – Sukumar Ray part1.
Like most who grew up reading Bangla, Santajit Ray, his father Shukumar Ray and grandfather Upendro-kishor Ray. I grew up reading Professor Shonku series by Satyajit Ray, Nursery rhymes by Shukumar Ray and almost all know of Gupi Gain Bagha Bain, written by grandfather Upendrokishor. This video has a bit of [...]
When I sift through life’s chapters,
I am amazed!
What I had thought to be rainbow colors,
Have all somehow hazed.
Somehow the brightness of my happy times
Have mingled with my life’s gloom.
Now that reality has started to bloom,
Do dreams ever come true-I wonder sometimes!
I keep on watching as the colors merge
And all the gloom join together
I feel my [...]
Whilst I thought I had cleansed up my thoughts and made it devoid of contempt and aggression; emptiness and loneliness I created in not giving other aspects of living a life kept on creating more and more. When I thought I had finished contemplating once and for all; I discovered life’s tight grips bind me [...]
I feel like I am a well.
Deep and dark as my heart.
Enclosed by weak eroding scales,
Brick by brick, slimy and falling apart.
The worms of despair
Feasting on my dark mind’s lair;
Worn out, uncared for, dusty and dirty,
Hidden by shrubs; foggy and misty.
Cold smelly emerald waters of hurt
Flowing through my veins;
Muddy stains in all of my parts,
The [...]
Cover me with moss
– and I shall melt.
Cover me with earth –
– and I shall melt.
Cover me with kisses –
– and I shall melt.
Fill me with love –
– and I shall melt.
Let me live –
– and I shall melt.
Kill me –
– and I shall melt.
The management team has decided.
It has calmed the tempest
That resonated the seven seas.
It has resolved the conflict
That created the turmoil
And watched patiently
At the rubble left behind.
Point of no return, it said.
A point so certain
That it is imperative
And from the ruins of it,
It shall live.
There’s the knock on the door.
Could it be you?
You would walk over me a little more?
Or would you do something new?
Why would you walk to my doorstep?
You could have just thought of me once.
My love would follow your footstep.
My heart would float to yours.
There’s that knock again.
You knock is in vain.
I am in the extreme [...]
Thoughts mean so much more than reality nowadays.
Every moment changing it’s colors.
Have you ever seen the color of sadness?
Of distrust?
Of fear — disgust?
Together they make such beautiful portrait of life!
Think, my dear enemy!
Think of all the colors you have in the darkest canvas of your head.
Weave the threads of your true state of mind in [...]
