WHAT THAT YOU DENIED ONCE

Dr Sudhansu Dash

That what you denied once

Why again today?

You made me flow in the unknown river

A bundle of straw I am

Flew away with me all my helpless past

But you signed in the bright sun

I am just a paper boat

Undestined for the opposite direction

Am I so hateful, so painful to you

Not to claim the warmth of a mother’s lap?

Better ot disturb the old wound

That will only bleed

My unknown mother?

I cannot be your ay more

I am a mistaken unknown

Carrying the bowl of all my nevers

You threw me helpless before I see the light

What pride you have

I call you my mother4?

Nobody is of nobody here

All face the same battle of life

With the same ego , the same pride

With his lonely death

Call me not your son

I am helpless

Only death calls when life begins here

Every thing a game of the maker.
