The Demise Of An Unfortunate Star Poem by Amitava Chakraborty

Everyday I ask that unknown evening star,
'Were you there at same galaxy
Long years ago when I was blessed by God
With first love and hope
To set off for eternity? '

A known journey to an unknown destination!
Yet two souls tied together
With ecstasy in expedition
For an evergreen world of hues and joy.

Everyday I ask that unknown evening star,
'Were you there at the same galaxy
Long years ago when I was cursed by God
With a mysterious isolation
From my beloved with heart full of pain? '

A tragic end of an understanding
Left this innocent lover alone in vast world
Like silent demise of you, the evening star,
Being unnoticed by new aspirants in true love.
