On Your Special Day Poem by Avik Datta Gupta

With every passing day


The simmering hopes and longingness


Suddenly seem to explode into a big ball of fire


This special day is just meant for that


So don't let it pass off like just another day in your life


Where you struggle to be different


By isolating yourself from your own


It's time to reap the harvest you have sown


All these days, for the whole year


Saving every dropp of your deepest tears


So stay hand in hand and stay face to face


As you'll see beneath the bridge of your arms


The tired waves of life giving you eternal glances


Not making your soul live the life of the immortals


But enjoy the resources that come your way
