Sankha Datta Poems

Sometimes I wonder
How can I dance
Though I don’t know the art
I wonder,
...

Life is a laughter but
no one can smile
Life is so hard that
makes us fragile
...

When I gaze up the sky
And I search someone dear
Loneliness is what I find
And I find me in tear
...

it’s not for a life do I hope,
I hope for each passing day
it’s not for a death that I cry
I cry for I die everyday
...

Once again I wanna run
Once again I wanna play
Give me back oh! Mighty God
Give back my yesterday
...

That dulcet dream
Is no more a hope
That scintillating eyes
Are far away from scope
...

That yellow grass
That black soil
That worthless work
And hard toil
...

Listen.. listen to their cry
I conceive them in my soul,
In my heart and in my mind
...

I know the river will
Go towards the bay..
Me, only me
Will be lonely
...

A storm I met and I enjoyed the destruction….
I enjoyed as I saw it’s freedom and conviction

It was directional but with no symmetry…
...
