Ipshita Chakraborty Poems

I will pledge my life away from me
But tell me something first
Where does the sea go to calm itself?
What does water drink when it suffers thirst?
...

A distant song, more like lamented echoes
Cries stricken tales of love, of hunger and woes,
The phoenix breathes his last dejected breath
He stands still now, surrenders to death.
...

Planned reactions
Obtuse actions
Dried tears
Devouring fears

Lay me on a bed of dreams, sweet love
I'm not strong or willing anymore
The lightness and weight of my obscure truth
I cannot carry further, I cannot endure;
...

They ask me what I see in thee; I say

An endless sky and ocean mist
...

That freedom is more than vast blue skies?
An eagle suffers hunger on a rainy day
When she needs shelter, flight does not suffice
...

to play li’l games, footballs and kicks,
we played and played till the mud scorched our face
we fell and bled, but left not a trace;
