Decline

After calling you time and again I went back.

I went backwith empty hands empty hearts

Into disappointment and deception.

Door that was avowedly to keep open all life

Was shut by some clever design

Not in monsoon but in the very spring.

The flowers that were to bloom in the dawn of the day

Buds have wilted in the drought in after-sunset darkness

Puting out all my dreams and starlights with both hands

Must you depart in search of new warmth?

Even after twelve years today, Purobi, I went back

After calling you anew, nursing blue poison in my heart.

The body, the earth and the sky are shaking with lust

But you”re still unmoved with your unfailing arch looks.

This is a call of the blood that none can deny.
