Quiet moments
Debanjana Saha Apr 2017
Cafe at midnight with a friend,
brewing a fresh freedom of life.
cold coffee, lemonade with ice.
Chilled minds but unspoken words around.
Not knowing why is it so difficult to utter a word
and it only happens to be a sigh!
Empty chairs and a group of people inside.
me, my friend but with not a single word
staring into the phones
only thinking why is it so difficult to start our talks
after a so called time being along!
I find it very difficult to talk with my friends or anybody whoever I know. I never talk or never show who I'm really.

How I wish
Debanjana Saha Mar 2017
You never made me feel
as special as others make me feel now.
You never treated me that well
as much as others do now.
I know you told me you
never loved me truly
But my friends do..
they are more than what I ever hoped.
Its all about people, its how they are raised to be..
that's the difference between you, me and others.
The way you treated me doesn't let me
believe that I could be treated well.
But yes, they are treating me well.
How I wish I could make them feel
as special as they make me feel too.
How I wish I could forget everything
and start with a new slate!
How I wish..but wishes are not for me anymore!
How I wish I could feel more than before

Blooming Sunrise
Debanjana Saha Dec 2017
How nature blooms
Is a precious experience to pause
And watch
In the oasis of fog, mist and wind blowing all over
Chills & thrills exposure
of the ambience
speeding through the roads.
It feels like heaven
Full of love, with a kiss of the first ray of the sun
I took a deep breath
as much as I could
Sensing the myself alive
In this beautiful dreamy land
a sense of belongingness
Saying to myself that
yes, I do exist.*

-19 Dec, 2017
This on the early morning where I watched sunrise on top of a hill. A journey which is worth thousand times more than anything.
A reality check to feel life all over again and learn how to appreciate smallest things in life.

Raw beauty in bitterness
Debanjana Saha Mar 2018
Ever wondered what raw beauty is?
I feel it now, I understand it now.
I don't like sweet people
All coated in best sugary dips
Like the artificial flavoured ones.

Rather I prefer now the raw bitterness
At least it's not coated or artificial
It's raw and honest
No matter how much it hurts
At least it is what it is
Love to taste the raw bitterness
With beauty within intact in it.
Beauty in raw whether it's sweet or bitter
That's at least truthful to how it is. No mask. Just how it is to be.

Blink! Blink!
Debanjana Saha Nov 2018
Blink! Blink!
And suddenly
Everything changes
You, me, I, him, her,
Surroundings,
Everything does change!

Love, hate
and every other feeling
Loses it's way

Let not anything
Tamper your soul
YOLO is what
You need to
remind your soul!

Let's get lost from within
And worry too less
What others might think!
An inward journey is soothing
One might take years to reach
But the journey is worth taking!

Gardens By The Bay
Debanjana Saha Nov 2018
A walk through the
Gardens by the Bay
And the super tree Grove skyway
All by my own
I felt it was enough for me
To take it all by my own
Such beauty and escasty
To find the love in nature
Is what life had given me
A gift of a new place
A garden which is never
Enough to visit one more time
The winds kissing me all across
Keeping no barrier in a foreign land!

A place which still
makes me happy
when I visualize back and forth.
The cool breezes and the greenary with the hint of flowers
Unique in it's own way
No comparison
Yet beautiful love
All throughout :)
Recently visited Gardens by the Bay in Singapore made me understand the power of nature all over again!

Dark notes
Debanjana Saha Sep 2017
Each of us
Carries a dark patch
Trembling in guilt
to hide to our brim
No longer be afraid
of that dark side
As we are more than
the darkness
We are the light
to be outshined!
Go out and shine...
Or be there inside,
Still shine.
Darkness remains still
But never always
Without a crack of light.

Shutting Idea - II
Debanjana Saha May 2017
Shutting idea?
Mystery it may seem
for how long will it dim?
May be,
until we find
something more to it
to rekindle out of spring!

With all the insight
I find no way out
to become whole so soon
but to wait
for the
blue moon
to shine upon 'us'
to find 'us' to bloom..

There's no plan
should I wait or leave?
The quest continues..
Are we not
worth being
together?
                                finding
         ­                                          &
                                                                ­     fixing

me
                &
                             you

                                                          pi­ece
                                                             ­                by
                                                              ­                                    piece...
Solving
                         the
                                                puzzle

to make 'us'
whole

       on
                     the
                                    way
                     ­                                 back
                           ­                                          to
                                                              ­                     our
                                                             ­                                                home.....
This is the second verse
of my poetry - Shutting idea..
It is in pieces, yet to be whole
as the quest still continues..

The idea of writing
a second verse to it is suggested by
Rosalind Heather Alexander.
Thank you immensely.

Quiet! Racing mind
Debanjana Saha Mar 2018
Surrendering to the quietness
Of the soul beneath
Dancing to the steps
Naturally taken aback
Go with the flow
Don't look back.
The racing mind and me
jumps off a cliff
doesn't stop
It's racing to win the race.
A race which takes us to nowhere
To many unanswered queries
Why mind?
What are you racing for.
Relax, have a drink!
And learn to enjoy
The beauty in every pause
You and I take for God sake.
A racing mind always in a hurry
Missing out the beauty.
I get exhausted but again deep breathing helps.
Debanjana Saha Apr 2017
Having an ice-cream cone
makes me feel nothing less than a kid on my own.
I start with the cream on top of the cone
with gentle kisses, here and there
smiling at it as if making it happy while having it
And the ice-cream smiling back at me
with the delicacy of sharing..
The conversation starts -
how are you doing?
Yes, after having you bit by bit
I am feeling much better than before I admit.
in-between the ice-cream melts..
messing up my hands and mouth while eating
But who cares...
I am having an ice-cream cone
that too, a vanilla dipped into chocolate melt.

23 April, 2017
Happy moments spent with an ice-cream...

Supermoon
Debanjana Saha Jan 2018
I wondered how the moon
Was superbly beautiful.
Taking chances to climb up high
And more higher than usual reach,
Just to admire it more than ever.

I spoke with a girl of age 8,
Explaining her about the supermoon
She asked supermoon?
After understanding it
She said wait, wait.
Let's go to the terrace
And admire it together.
A bond formed talking about the moon and how she can relate to it more as her mom used to tell her stories about moon when she was a child.

Broken vessel
Debanjana Saha Jun 2017
A broken vessel
full of cracks
cannot hold the love
but to pour out
empty all along
without reflection
of the soul
I'm a broken vessel
unable to become whole.
Broken vessel can never carry the love
but pours out to be empty all the time
Debanjana Saha Nov 2017
In one side when depressed
Pressing the blankets
Holding tight to oneself
And crying harder than ever
As if the sky has fallen
And no escape anywhere to be seen.
Days and nights passes by
Sometimes, months and years too.

But then, there are days
When I just got used to it
Waking up in the morning
and getting out of bed
is still as difficult as earlier.
But still,
I wake up
In the hope to see some light.
I go out, see the whole world busy,
running around on a Saturday morning
Each of them being a sportsperson
And playing every other sports outside
Basketball, football, cricket and so on. I suppose every one is alone in this world,
Just like me!
But they chose differently to be,
They keep themselves busy under the blanket of their passion
Time is fleeting by anyways,
No wonder we can hold on to it.
So why not chose a passion
And throw the blanket away
And move on with life
With each of our incomplete passion
To fill our emptiness from within!
Weekend lesson. Passion is what drives us to live the life and love it to it's every but.

Mind battles
Debanjana Saha Sep 2018
There are times,
You take the sword
You take the shield
And keep fighting
Within your mind
Not knowing
Whom to hurt
and whom to save!

Let's just throw the sword
And the shield
Conquer from within
Let it hurt
Until, the mind wires
And rewires
To form a new You!
I read somewhere, 99% of the battles are in the mind, which is so true. Hopes are always there to conquer and come out afresh!

Birthday cake
Debanjana Saha Jul 2018
A cute chocolate truffle cake
Brought mysteriously
Without my knowledge at all.

My team & colleagues
clapping and singing
Happy Birthday
Which
means a lot to me.

While I cut the cake
with shaking hands
Anxious a bit
Not used to
So much of attention
How to express my emotions
Whether happy or sad,
I don't know what to do

As all of them
Gave me a reason
To smile a bit
And be happy despite
of challenges.
My birthday on this Sunday but my team brought a beautiful cake to cherish upon.
Sorry all of you for not being around much here. Hectic schedule does make me low
But trying to get back on reading and writing poetry here more often.
Hp is always a family to me, and you all have been my pillar during the storms and thunder.

Conversational attempt
Debanjana Saha Apr 2017
A conversation starts with a smile
connecting  the soul altogether.
Not required whether we see each other
but to feel each other through the soul.
And the conversation keeps getting long
never ever ending it may seem
but if the soul shrinks
the conversations empties from the brim!
Long Conversation

Interaction with my Boss
Debanjana Saha Apr 2017
Had a conversation with my Boss
He said he is the common sufferer
Meaning of common sufferer –
everybody takes leave or two from their job
But he is a full-time worker for maintaining
his company and studying more to be more attain.
Should I be sad about it that he works so much more than all of us
Or
be happy that he has achieved so much in life
Irony of life..
Hard work pays but hard work takes away a lot too..

And its again spring
Debanjana Saha Mar 2017
And its spring
with birds chirping,
high or low but you would be smiling
with the force that unfolds smelling so wonderful
beauty all around you
and you see only the wounds!
why? why do you do that to yourself?
I know You no longer jump with joy as the seasons reshape.
But someday you might recall that the beauty within yourself
and let the blooming takes place from inside out.
Let seasons remould  you,
let all the past fall away,
and the buds bloom throughout your way
with no validation to sway.
Just you within you blooming with the butterflies turned on nearby.
Let seasons reshape you.
And seasons give you the power to bloom you!

Healing Void
Debanjana Saha Jan 2021
That void never really goes away!

They say it all heals
with the flow of time
but we keep running about in circles
to heal and fill up our voids.

What's the story of your void
which caused your emptiness?
No matter how much you bribe it
with all the worldly things,
It stills remains that hollow
from the inside!

We keep seeking for ourselves
in our true forms
trying to fill our voids
which made us hollow
only to find no way out!

And that void just grows
with all the time you had in life.

Hoping someday we heal
reciprocating what we may need!

May we heal,
heal from that void
which drains all our energies
piercing and tearing us apart
from within!

May we heal!

-Debby2021
Just venting the void
soothes us sometimes
as there is no alternate solution to heal
except to keep wishing to reciprocate and heal
from that void from within!

Appearance matters?
Debanjana Saha May 2017
Why is that appearance
matters so much?

short
tall
lean
fit
chubby
fair
dark
so on
&
so forth.

This virtual world
expects us to be perfect.
And if we are not,
we just tend to
hide ourselves!

But why can't we judge
through the soul?

bold
beautiful
passionate
tender
inspiring
Authentic
gener­ous
affirmative
intelligent
genuine
&
so on..

why is that our senses are
so accustomed outwardly
rather than peeping inside
one's soul?
Strangeness of virtual world -
This virtual world seems so dangerous..
we connect to each other virtually
but often when met in person
everything vanishes into ashes
as if nothing mattered at all
rather than appearance!

Lucky mistakes
Debanjana Saha Apr 2017
Walk through the
meadow of mistakes
not to overburden
but to climb through its alp
blunders after blunders
it might seem
but anyways keep climbing
not on the same mistake
but different ones each time
luck will find you a way
sooner to sway
awaiting to reach the
peak amidst the hay
with the ocean breeze
caressing away...
Mistakes are never mistakes
but an insightful vision which saves us..

Breezy romance
Debanjana Saha Apr 2017
Half way down the road..
wandering all by my own
a certain hour of excitement
reaching to my lips
caressing me beneath my chin
& as I close my eyes
I feel the breezy wind romancing
with me to its rim!
Fantasy of my breezy romance.

Sweet disturbance
Debanjana Saha Apr 2017
How sweet can a disturbance be?
It lingers in your mind & heart,
Crawls back to you with a puppy face for a while..
hugs you for quite a nice time
laughs with you until its over-brim!
Eat with you, walks with you
does all the stupid things with you
making no sense at all
yet, adding memories of sweetness out of all!
But after a while chokes you
as you start missing everything all over again!
Change, changes us in every other way
leaving behind sweet/sour memories with us!

Unsorted beauty
Debanjana Saha Feb 2018
Rubic cube taught me,
With full of unsorted colors
No matter we can sort or not
But it is still an unsorted beauty
Leaves it's impression to be how it is
Or how more it gets unsorted
with more variations of colors
Doesn't matter what happens next
That's how life goes on!
Was playing with a rubic cube lately and the unsorted whole of it made me to think so deep. It's a way to satisfy oneself that not everything will get sorted out smoothly! The pain of being unsorted should be enjoyed more often!

Mystery Unsolved!
Debanjana Saha Aug 2018
People walking out
I walk out too
I seeked other people
Few to talk to
Few just to comfort
And another wanted me
May be my body.

But none were 'You'
I missed you
I seeked you
And no replies
from you!

What are you made up of?
You show your extreme care for me
But never tell me I love you
I waited for seasons
Still do, thinking whether it's just
A friendship or something beyond that.
The best is to write and be here. I stopped writing as I was in lot of dilemma remaining unsolved. Thank you all for being there for me. I hope to be here more now.

Change in two years
Debanjana Saha Feb 2022
"A year or two
Went by
Deep down
With silence
Longer than ever
No words to write
or to express
And there I was
standing all alone
Not knowing whether
to end or to start anew!

Was that even me
Who used to write
Or this is me
Who kept quite?

Who am I?
Did corona
actually change
all of us
or its just me
Who changed
more than ever?
"
How are you all? This corona years have been difficult for all of us. I have changed upside down. Not sure how it's has changed you all. But trusting all of you are fine. Take care ❤️

Puzzle of my love stories
Debanjana Saha Apr 2017
Relationship after relationships
begins and ends quite often..
Each are are superbly selected
not by money or humor or any other thing
except the mystery they hold..
I am a curious lover,
I seek mystery in each of them
until one leaves,
I seek for the same substitute all over again!
Love is curiosity and mystery for me.. I love to find my way or be completely lost in a puzzle of love each & every time.

Surreal Dreams
Debanjana Saha Apr 2017
Wondering what's a dream actually?
whether it is something to be fulfilled
or leave as it is?
To dream a dream of an unreal dream
and not to make it real at all..
A surreal reality quietly enriches from within..
just like a bud blooms into the nature
without getting plucked by...
rather concealing the beauty of it as a dream
only to be a dream!
Most of the dreams are always on the top list gets piled up to get fulfilled one after the other. But there are also wonderful dreams which conceals a beauty of it into a surreal reality.

Love of Nature

Down the road
I walk pass by the nature
endless roads, sunset
lake, birds flying
showing me how to pause
& to enjoy the
fleeting moments
of life
endless happiness
all by my side
I look here & there
to share the joy
of nature's love
but found none.

Understood

That nature & me are one
enjoying being whole again
healing me with all its power
like baby on its womb
caressing me with all the winds
and showering its love
over-brimming!
Nature's powers are endless..
Love each moment spent in nature.

Dear fear
Debanjana Saha Apr 2017
I confess that I fear everything,
& coming out of my shell is yet to find!
Dear fears, I wish you could go for a vacation away from me!
with you I am hesitant as well as resistant all the time.
I don't know how to explain.
I wish I could let go of all of them
And do everything I ever wanted to do.
Thoughts keeps running across my mind
figuring no way out except thinking.
And my time is flowing fast enough...
I wish there was somebody to push me from the cliff
so that I could actually start living..
But, I get it, there is nobody except me
I have to push myself
Not for others but for myself.
I don't want to change for other but for myself..
I blame my fears but fear is a part of me whom I have to cut it out!

Missing my Poet friends

My poet friends no longer are here to read
they are long gone...where I do not know.
Not a single clue at all
as we all are wrecked
yes, I know and its all out of the blue.
Life changes suddenly & I get it!
When things doesn't go our way
we take a backseat or just choose to leave.
Is it possible in some way
that some reconsideration of substitute
would heal us from beneath?

I need those bonds of friendship back
I need those sensitivity which would make me
come out alive..
Yes, I need it all back!!
This changes in the HP just wrecked my life in one way..
Changes happens but not so much that it could choke us from the neck!!

Appreciation note
Debanjana Saha Mar 2018
I left an apprection note
For the ones
who works in my 'Creative team'.
Days and nights went by
When I was little angry
As their works weren't that great
And partly, they too weren't
Liking me that well.

But now,
I am bit more matured
With a little more of patience
And humor while playing my part.
As a lead, I stand like a pillar
Whenever they are in trouble,
And would like to stand at last
While taking appreciation,
Rather dividing more of
Inspiration, understanding
And appreciation
Amongst themselves
For collectively
performing well.

Creativity is sowed and I enjoy watering them
everyday as I go,

And they continue to work
with their right brains
With laughter, humor
and designer jokes.

I enjoy their smiles and laughter while packing up for their homes
I wish to maintain
a chilled creative team
Where they are happy to work
And go back home
With extension of smiles
For getting appreciated well enough
For solving the creative challenges of everyday life!

Cheers to my team!
Yesterday, I made my team realize
How important they are
And how much they meant to the team
Spreading collective inspirations
And appreciating their works.
Making them smile and laugh,
While solving the creative problems.

Sometimes

Sometimes
Falling down
everything
Going wrong
Breaking up
Getting rejected
Getting ignored
Feeling it's the end
Of life!

And taking
a step backwards
Gives a new perspective
Of what I need
and what I deserve!

After shattering
into pieces
I will take
piece by piece
To fix myself
Pieces valuable
Pieces to be removed
To fresh start
all over again.
Introspect: Change is constant but which change would come when and how it should change is what is required.

Secret Love
Debanjana Saha Dec 2017
Love seems in the air
makes me fly every other day
but unexpressed it remains.
The silence of it
chokes me amidst the laughter
and the time we spend.

A girl should keep quiet
and wait for the guy to confess.
Trying to be a girl
but don't know how long?
How long shall I wait
and shut my feelings for you?

What is it for
you are keeping quiet
either you are taking advantage
or waiting for the right time..
But for how long shall I wait?
My secret love, out of fear and rejection
have no clue..how to express!

Sleeping pills
Debanjana Saha Oct 2017
Sleep comes over to sleep
Leaving me empty & alone
And it keeps snoring
Happily as I have known!

I look at it
And demand
Please sleep,
Let me sleep
with be you
And be at peace.

It declines,
Leaving me
Empty hearted
I cling, I drown,
I silently cry out
HELP!
Someone
help me please!

I see only pills
I drank them
Gulping with water.

I knew
I was drowning
Untill
I found the sleeping pill
To rescue me
From the devil inside
Me!
Late night panic attack leaves his me hard.
I heard how loneliness **** same as smoking.
Living that life, every other day
I wish I fall in love with myself with all the bruises and burns. The past haunts me, the present scolds me
And future shouts at agony! Self-harm hurts. Unable to heal. I have been clean for a year but again the devil from within took over me! Not easy, and more than that hiding it from the real world and keeping a static face is more difficult.

Sweetness of jealousy
Debanjana Saha May 2017
A sweet tender moment of jealousy
should I take it with a pinch of salt or honey?
May it be honey mixed with jealousy
but ironically, it's funny
how jealousy is
tasting more like sweet
than bitter
completely opposite
to its nature
a little bit of jealousy
with a lot more understanding of
love <3
understanding a different stage of jealousy

Closer to Oneself
Debanjana Saha Feb 2018
The more I am into
Reading, writing or creating art
The more I am learning about the meaningful asset of oneself.
The more I am becoming
closer to oneself.
The more I am losing others
like the sand slipping from hand.
Everything seems so away
And I am there only to comfort oneself
The need is now how to be better
To serve others and to love oneself.
Deeper meaning of life struck me hard. Nothing matters, no love, no hatred. Everything is so much beyond and temporary. Everything seems so meaningful but again at the end of the day, everything is so meaningless.

No more waiting
Debanjana Saha May 2017
I used to wait
longing for someone
to love me all over again!
Longing is hurtful
if no one ever
shows up at all!

But....

Now I wait for myself
to wrap up my each day's task
and be me, just me
whom I would caress
with some love
and finding my love
in everything I do,
I write, read & paint each day
& that's where I feel
This is what I was meant to be!
Waiting should be purposeful
And if there is nothing worth
waiting for then better I wait &
find my love in everything
I come across with..
To be on my own finally!
Debanjana Saha Jul 2018
To look back my 28 years of life
What good did I do
Or what not good things
I can improvise too!

Years passes by and we have no clue
But aging swiftly
Without breathing the fresh soothing air
Without seeing the best out of worst
And without seeking the light
out of dark,
Perception matters a lot,

Life itself is challenging, let it be
But how to surf through it
And enjoy each moment is what matters!

Hopefully I would learn all of it.
It's my Birthday today but feeling very ordinary, nothing special. But yes, to make a difference in someone's life as well as my own is what matters. Life can't go on like that. Let it be something meaningful. Thank you my hp family to be there always with me during thick and thin of my life.

Without you
Debanjana Saha Mar 2017
Everything I eat or everything I do,
It reminds me of you.
The moment I get that terrible feeling of losing you
I get back to you.
Just two lines from you, upturned me completely,
not knowing how to get through.
My love, I would never dare to erase you.
And how I can I ever be without you as I am immersed in the memories of you.
I don't know whether its you or the tender memories you have left behind you.
How I wish I could reach you just for once and would have showered the love which I had for you.
You once said - Go with the flow
But how on Earth would I ever keep flowing without you.
I know I'm a dark wild soul which can't love the way you want.
But believe me I have loved you with all my heart.
My days and months without you
Debanjana Saha Mar 2017
Today is the day when i stopped waiting for you.
I stopped glancing at different devices that you will let me in one more time.
I stopped every other illusions of you turning back into reality.
But that doesn't hinder me to love you back.
I cannot see or feel your presence
But you know what?
I have a power to imagine
Imagining that I'm loved.
No more I desolate myself to find me alone
I have you within me.
Call me crazy but I bet I'm more loved than you are in reality!
Never would I stop by you..I'm too broken..

Facets of Life
Debanjana Saha Apr 2019
Find your circle
Fill the blank spaces
And the emptiness
Residing from within.

A circle of relationships
rooting out to grow
Which I lack indeed.

The sense of belongingness
Lacking to it's brim
Overflowing
with the empty spaces,
With nothing to be hidden
Nothing to be afraid of
Nor accepting
what's happening!

Carefully haunting you
every second of your life.
Only trying to understand
Whatever is true.

The facets keeps on fluctuating
Only You can fill up your core
From your entirety
consisting of the universe
And let it outshine to its core.

Create your circle
In which You and
Tiny imaginative creatures
Will accompany you
to find your hope of joy!
After a long time I have written a poetry, for few months I was realizing, no matter for how long I keep escaping from life, I have no option of hiding out, but to face it through. This poetry inspiring the self realization of my life.

Way out
Debanjana Saha Apr 2017
You - floating
Me - drowning!!

You - floating..
keep floating
Me - out of it..
It takes time to be out of the wrong situations
but there is always another way to figure it out...

Dream catcher
Debanjana Saha Oct 2017
I got a dream catcher
As a gift
To dream the dream
While asleep
And make the dream
come true
While awake.

But
The irony of dream catcher
Turned out to be black
I see nightmares
Crawling back every night
I feel restless
How the dream catcher
Became a nightmare catcher?
Questioning the dream catcher!

Duped and shattered trust
Debanjana Saha Apr 2018
I was duped last night
By the Transgenders beggers
Most of the time I ignore them
As if I never saw them
But last night
I was a little scared
As I knew I had money in my wallet
For no reason I stopped
And they forwarded towards me
Asking me for money
I somehow thought that poor people
They have no place in the society
So they beg
Not fair that people neglect them
So took out little money and gave them
To my shock, they wanted to see how much more money I had
They kept saying they would just keep a coin
Took out the whole bunch of money
And I kept saying No,
Don't take
Don't take.
I have no more money
But 3 of them in agressive voices
Kept telling me
They will keep the money back
Swearing in the name of God
I was not leaving the money
Until I saw them being more agressive towards me
I left the money
And they took and kept again
Obviously I knew half the money won't be there
But I was scared
As everyone was just a mere audience
I had to save myself
Money I can get back
But thought if they attack me
That might be more tragic.
They folded the Money and kept back and questioning me in more agressive voices-
Why don't you trust us?
Why don't you trust us?

They left after that
And I left the opposite side
Checking my wallet
They took more than half the money
And left little money for me.

A lesson learnt, during hard times
Nobody comes to rescue
Rather I have to be extra careful.
I was scared the whole night
I know people would laugh at me
Saying why did I stop there
Or take out my wallet in the first place.
I didn't plan for all these
Just thought may be being helpful might be good.

Duped as I was.
While trusting and helping people, we need to be extra careful. Better to ignore as usual. Helping might not turn out to be good for few cases but also, I know due to their situation they had to forcefully take my money. Safety comes first than money. I am still in trauma and obviously I will give a second thought to it.

I write
Debanjana Saha Apr 2017
I write inbetween
my hushful & hasty life.
I carry no baggage
but to pour out by compiling all of my heart.

I eat, sleep, laugh, cry, work, dream
which goes on till its brim.
But one thing which makes me whole
is my write,.
It brings me joy out of pain
it shakes me up while in strain
it soothes me altogether
& comforts me without any fail.
I wanted to share my writing experience..how it makes me whole every single time without any fail.

Boundless friendship
Debanjana Saha Mar 2017
We are friends and I don't remember from when,
Our time, places are not the same,
You in the past and I in the future
to build a lovely present.
You and I feel like same
You are precious making me smile now and then,
We are now not alone anymore
We have our thoughts, opinions, moments in life to be shared all along,
We are but a journey which I never wanna miss,
We are but tiny pieces in this space of time with high aspirations to be fulfilled,
We are but brimming of sensations walking past the nature seeking ourselves from this far off world.
It is dedicated to one of my new friend whom I have never met but she is so adorably special to me.
