Safrina Kabir Aug 2021
Isn’t it a curse to live long
Beloved friends all gone
Kiths and kins buried down
Remains their name on the stone.

Sitting alone at the bay
Hair, beard all grey
As I peep at the past
A few memories that last

Always wanted to live long
Rein the world, get the throne
Luxury, name and fame
Emperor of my own game.

Countless nights wasted on hope
Handful of moments spent for love
Hope lies in fist now
Love is nowhere to be found.

A little too late
To fear death,
A little too late
To turn around.

A faded thought still remains
A desire to be remembered
If not the name I have earned
For the deeds I have done.
An old man is sitting alone at the bay thinking about the life he lived. Reaching to this point of life , he realizes he has spent most of his youth on earning and dreaming big. Now that he achieved all that he wanted, he understands how worthless everything is. The  man is really lonely without anyone to accompany him. He is left alone ,the way he had left his family alone in the past.

The last ounce of life
Flowing out through my vein
All are wasted for
Worldly gain
My love ,
Let me leave this world
Of pain
Safrina Kabir Jul 2021
Eyes fixed at the stars,
Feet feel the solace of earth.
Here we stand , there we stare
Passing moments of dismay.
Amidst the cold water
Lies a piece of land of warmth,
Little may it be
Yet worth of stay.
A mere try to personify life. My unsuccessful attempt seeks your guidance.
Safrina Kabir Jul 2021
CRY
I would do anything
Anything to see you cry
My baby
Your feeble hand dissappered in mine
I hate to let you die
I would do anything to make you cry
Before the dawn demise
Just once my sweet child
The pain of a mother losing  her infant has been depicted. Birth of a child in a family starts a new chapter in life. Again his death can shatter the previous.
Safrina Kabir Apr 2021
You tried hard
To put the broken pieces together
It stands now,
But the cracks will be there forever .

All quite,
In the silence of the night
We watch us sliding away
Every passing day.

In to your eyes
I see ocean of warmth turned into ice,
Deep inside
Desired wishes demise.

Your blank stare,
Cold nights ,
Why to live if
I do not exist .

Why to stay
If we want to go away .
Why to rebuild
When we are waiting for the end.
Time changes everything. It changes one and the way one feel. With the passage of time, the person, who once loved you , may become numb towards you. It is better to let go than burdening him with the responsibility of living with you.

I was dead inside
For so long
A piece of coal
Deep deep down

Now you watch me
Sparkling bright
Glittering fair
You cannot break me
Anymore
Sorrow and hardship can make you stronger. Like coal is transformed into diamond. Nothing and nobody can break then.
Safrina Kabir Mar 2021
Sky of sooth broke into rain

Fell upon me

Drowned me deep

Deep into grief
When we finally face the reality , we come to know the ugly truths of life .
