Night's spoil
Subhasish Ganguly 1994 (West Bengal)
Tonight I rest my roses in grave
Tonight I bring out the bones, and tear the music from them...
What can I do more ?
The moon or the star or the fireflies, nothing holds...
My heart to this world
There is no complaint
Only sadness,
There is no complaint, but one- the birth.
And, all those occupations of mind,
fantasies of young desire
All those sentences starting with, I wish...I wish...I wish
must take rest
Tonight I put my roses in grave
And, my heart in drifting time...
