IT HURTS.........

WHEN I THINK OF YOU IN A LONELY NIGHT
MEMORIES FADE DRENCHING MY EYESIGHT
SUCH LOVELY DAYS TOGETHER
WE SPEND WOULD LOSE SOMEWHERE
NO, SHE IS NOT MT GIRLFRIEND
NO, SHE IS NOT MY LOVE
THEY ARE MY FRIEND IN THE EARTH ABOVE


SHARING UMBRELLA IN POURING RAIN
PULLING LEGS AGAIN AND AGAIN
CREATING CHAOS EVERYWHERE WE GO
DEVELOPING SOMETIMES INFLATED EGO
IT HURTS WHEN I THINK OF YOU
SAYING GOOD BYE BIDDING 'ADIEU'

SO MANY MOVIES SOME GOOD SOME BAD
A LOVELY TIME ALL OF US HAD
THOUGH SOME LOST, SOME THERE, SOME NO WHERE
AND IT HURTS IN THE HEART HERE

SHARING STREET FOOD CHATTING AT THE PARK
GIVING ADDA AND IT'S GETTING DARK
ALBUM NOW AN IDENTITY, INCIDENTS A MEMORY
ME LOSING YOU TO GAIN GLORY

IS THIS LIFE?AND WERE WE FRIEND?
IS THIS WHAT WE GONNA ASK AT END?
IT HURTS WHEN I THINK AHEAD AND FIND
I AM LEAVING MY COLLEGE FAR BEHIND

THOSE STREETS WE WALK
THOSE THINGS WE TALK
THOSE FOODS WE EAT
ALL GONNA WE DELETE
FRESH MEMORY IN COURSE OF TIME
IT HURTS WHEN I THINK YOU WERE MINE........

TO ALL MY FRIENDS.


FROM TRIDIB NARAYAN BHOWMIK

THE UNSUNG SONG

The unsung song ………….


He wakes up at 4.00 in the morning
Rubbing his drowsy eyes and yawning
Before you let the sun rays come in
He wakes up and his day begins

He sweeps the floor, opens the door
Burns the fire against his desire
With dreams in eyes of being higher

Sometimes He thinks of his sick mother
His drunk father, and his young sister
The mountain in his village
The monsoon spring flowing with rage
His dreams to study further
To be a doctor to treat his mother

Oh!!he is getting late to make tea
This is how he is a part of the city
Looking at the officers duty

Spending nights at the wretched stall
No matter whether it’s fog or rainfall
In the busy city with neon lights
He struggles, he fights

He eats what he gets
He dreams and then forgets
Looks at the cars rumbling past
Blue collared men within that

The malls touching the sky
Sometimes asks him why??
Was he born??
To fight all alone……..

And me being helpless writes poem
To bury his ambition for my fame

Still Love You...........

i don't know why i feel disgrace
every time i hear the charm of your voice
i don't know what runs through me
every time i see-----------you

i don't know why it keeps me thinking
every time i smell the touch of your skin
it keeps me crying, it feels like dying
when i am lying on bed---as if i am dead

i wanna forget i don't wanna get--------you
baby i know, you are not mine
well it's good, just fine
no matter what---i am feeling
what i want---to see you smiling

it's a sacrifice, it's a new device
it's the price of my love
walk away from me
i don't wanna see---------you

no no no don't turn back
i'm not in pain
look i'm not crying
see i am not trying

holding you close to my dream
i shall learn to live again
wait for you till then
you come to m---to relieve my pain

i shall wait for you till then

walking away from lfe

On a day I shall walk away
With silence with patience nothing to say
I shall run to the stream
Listening to the birds scream

Sitting under the shining sun
Far from the crowds all alone
No bustling horn, no streetlights
Breeze blows, the moon shines all nights

Where no one is busy, no daily routine
Where I can find the stars shine
Lost and lonely beneath a tree
The waterfalls in distant hills charms thee

In a land of happiness devoid of sorrow
No blood sheds no war tomorrow
Nothing to lose and no regrets
You don’t weep for that you don’t get

The clouds drench your melancholy
Shower sooths if you are lonely
You sleep with the fog dew and mist
The fountain spring washes your feet

So on a silent night I will walk away
Far from you on my way………………

Regrets

I regret for things not done
And for the love not shown
The time I left you alone
I regret and times move on…..

Now when life is ending
I yearn for a new beginning
To start again another way
To start a morn, an another day

Or I wanna live longer
Wanna be younger
I want back those stolen time
Wanna say those nursery rhymes

I wanna dance again
Get drenched in the rain
I wanna walk again in toddling steps
Feel again the warmth of first kiss

Those school & college days of mine
Left me alone to run with time
Those friends, faces and those names
Got lost, as my memory faints

I regret for the time I spent
Else happened of what I dreamt
I wanna live life again
I wanna love again

How much should I pay for childhood again???
To start another journey in the same train……

To my Friends

My lovely days in college
winding up with the growth of age

Those unknown faces,been a part of heart
Some became a my life's part

Some grief some smile
Amidst glancing at her for a while

Some silence some anger
someone bursting into tear

some dances some beer
there's always something to cheer

those priceless year
why comes once, my dear?

making love friends and fun
even walking under the sun

or saying good bye to evening train
after you get drenched in the rain

some talks over night at phone
goes went and gone

and you leave them with a good bye
you leave them with a deep sigh............Tridib.
