YOU AND ME

Dr Sudhansu Dash

Time walks ahead of me

To bring a stop to life one day

But I  could not collect the trust

Amidst mountains of beliefs.

Evening is ahead

Heading towards an unpenetrating darkness

Who can say?

How long I this stage?

When shall drop the cotton?

You live some more days

Taking the remains of my life

All my feelings may turn to be selfless offerings

In this hopeless void

Nothing remains

 But the memory of a hunted bird.

The smell of life never comes

Everything unfinished ad unwanted

The river dries of in the mid way

 With a warm kiss on the desert’s cheek

Before it melts into the ocean

Stretching to the horizon

I have become as silent as

A no-moon sky

Half made remained the life

Everything distorted from the beginning.
