Pertaining to: incurable Hopeless Romanticism, religiously, as always.


Ondho Jaatiswar

Omorotter prottasha nei
Nei kono daaabi dava
Ei noswor jiboner maane shudhu tomakei chava
Muhurto jaye jonmer moto ondho jaatiswar
Koto jonmer bhule java sriti bisrito okhhor
Chhera taalpata puthir paataye nishash fele hava
Ei noswor jiboner maane shudhu tomakei chava



Kalkeuter fonaye nachchhe lokhindorer sriti

Behula kokhono bidhoba hoi na eta banglar riti
Bheshe jaye bhela ebala obala
Eki shobdeho niye
Ageo morechhi abaar morbo premer dibbi diye


Jonmechhi ami ageo onek morechhi tomari kole
Mukti payi ni shudhu tomakei abaar dekhbo bole
Bar bar fire eshechhi amraa ei prithibir taane
Kokhono gangur kokhono kopai kopotakhhor gaane
Gangur hoyechhe kokhono Kaberi kokhono ba Mississippi
Kokhono Rhyne kokhono Congo nodider shorolipi
Shorolipi ami aageo likhini ekhono likhina tai
Mukhe mukhe ghera manusher gaane shudhu tomaakei chai

Tomake cheyechhi chhilum jokhon onek jonmo aage
Tothagoto tar nishhongoto dilen ostoraage
Tari korunaye bhikharini tumi hoyechhile eka eka
Amio kangal holam aarak kangaler theke dekha
Notojanu hoye chhilum tokhono ekhono jemon achhi
Madhukori hou noyon mohini sopner kachhakachhi
Thonte thont rekhe baricade gore premer poddotai
Bidroho aar chumur dibbi shudhu tomakei chai

Amaar shopne bibhor hoyei jonmechho bohubar
Ami-i chhilum tomar kamona bidroho chitkaar
Dukhho peyechho jotobar jeno amaye peyechho tumi
Amii tomar purush amii tomar jonmobhumi
Jotobar tumi jononi hoyechho totobar ami pita
Koto shontan jalalo preyoshi tomar amar chita

Barbar ashi amraa dujon barbar fire jayi,
Abaar ashbo, abaar bolbo, shudhu tomakei chai

Barbar ashi amraa dujon barbar fire jayi,
Abaar ashbo, abaar bolbo, shudhu tomakei chai

He: ain't a person.
He: is a feeling.

Another turning point.

a fork stuck in the road.

Time grabs you by the wrist;
directs you where to go.

So make the best of this test
and don't ask why.

It's not a question
but a lesson learned in time.

It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

So take the photographs
and still frames in your mind.

Hang it on a shelf
In good health and good time.

Tattoos of memories

and dead skin on trial.
For what it's worth,
it was worth all the while.

It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

There.

There aren't any words left. We have said them all in a very short time.

Nineteen years of many, many unfinished stories, and too many timeless, priceless and strange wonderful things that have made them worth living.

O Hori.

I live in a zoo of a certain kind.

The Keys to Your Heart


You are attracted to good manners and elegance.

In love, you feel the most alive when your lover is creative and never lets you feel bored.

You'd like to your lover to think you are loyal and faithful... that you'll never change.

You would be forced to break up with someone who was emotional, moody, and difficult to please.

Your ideal relationship is lasting. You want a relationship that looks to the future... one you can grow with.

Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would never break a commitment.

You think of marriage as something that will confine you. You are afraid of marriage.

In this moment, you think of love as commitment. Love only works when both people are totally devoted.
I say, nice way to stay consoled on Rose Day. Eh??
