Right From My Heart... Poem by Rituparna Choudhury

How can you leave me alone
when I need you the most? ...
How can you go away from my side
when the matter’s going to be the worst? …

How come you are so silent
thatI can’t even hear your soft voice? ...
Leave me, leave me not…
It’s your choice…

How come you have made me feel so helpless
that I only have to cry? ...
I thought I would go on with you forever
but you’ve already said me ‘goodbye’...

Why on earth we were separated
when we caused harm to none? ...
we were alike the other lovers…
Spreading joy, happiness and fun…

Why’s my heart feeling so empty and deserted
amidst the milling crowd? ...
I have nothing left in me…
For which I can feel happy and proud…

Why are your lips sealed
when I can hear loud noises all around? ...
Why do people forget about love
when it costs no pound? ...

Why has the world suddenly become so dark
That there’s not a sunray to see? ...
Why has all the laughter died
And smiles and giggles and glee? ...


Lonely me, lonely my heart…
We are in search of love and care...
We are in search of a true soul…
Who would always make us a smile to wear…
