Juxtaposition

Kaushik Ghosh 1979 (Calcutta)



Deep inside my heart, there’s a calm.
Deep inside, there’s a restlessness too.
Only my soul knows what it is
and my heart still keeps beating for you.

All my days go happy but still
all the day I think just of you.
Thinking of you makes me happy
and thinking of you makes me cry too.

Happy, not to see you these days
as that reminds - I can’t be with you.
Sad that we don’t see each other.
Missing you now, I can’t beat the blue.

I know well we’re not meant to be
with each other, yet I’m out of clue.
You too know it too but have you
flushed out all my memories? Have you?
