Can You Listen To My Cry? Poem by Amitava Sur

Still I aspire to live in this earth
But not with this burning pain
Of the loss of my love.

I cry out with tears to flush out my pains
Desperately I try to get rid of them.
So much of sorrows and grief, accumulated in,
My pitcher is full, cannot contain any more

I’m so undone so restless I am
I have no control on the poor myself.

Kick me hit me and pain me a ton
To bring me back to full of my sense.

Pull by my ears and pull me with a jerk
To bring me out of my grieves’ dark den.

Hey – you all, can you listen to my cry
Still I aspire to live in this earth.

Pull me out of my grieves’ dark den
Bring me back to full of my sense.
