Endless

Translation of a poem by Shawon1982 written in Bengali Language

I was immersed in me day & night

But I couldn't find myself anywhere..I'm tired

In the moonlight I looked ,in the darkness I looked

Yet I couldn't see me I did not call Me

Before a mirror ,my reflexion,no!that's not Me

Who then is the image in the reflexion?

Is it a new Me ?

I've heard echoes only heard by me alone

I never did reply saying "This is Me"

I am running - a unchained body

With the chains of silence I looked for the Horizon

I dripped like blood.. sometimes like rain in drought

"Here am I ,here am I" I screamed aloud

I am running at breakneck speed not looking back

I have a cup of tea in my hand yet why am I absent?

I've been through nightmares yet I couldn't find myself

Naked hesitation,entranced eyes,Me silent in prayer

The prayer house is empty !!! Where am I ?

Even  rocks are smoothened by the flow of water

Look at Me,I am here !Forever thirsty-Me,me,me !!
