-: 7 Years Have Passed: -
I sat in a corner of my dark room,
perpetual darkness with infernal chaos,
A lost soul with a viscous brain and heart, tormented without cause unknown to my being,
I was watching as a lonely witness,
My own self deserting me, futility...
Like stagnant water with
Rotten leaves,
No one was seen and unseen was my dream,
I was lost, so lost in darkness and room,
No thought came to find me out of Myself, searching was tiring and no wave was formed,
Even no wish to discover myself,
From the deepest dungeon bevel world,
Nothing arose in me to assert Self,
A vagrant soul and a vagabond mind,
With no direction to make my journey,
Only monotony the solidified ding,
I was preparing for myself as One,
Lost and lost within grave of self delusion.
Instantly a ray came onto my Being,
And a flame from inside my fed up self,
The self that was consumed burned with pain,
my being with unknown fire and Joy startled,
Looking at the flame
I felt love with woe,
For an unknown state of recognition,
He, a magnetic force,
A sweet serenity,
and a childish joy...
I fell without fail with strange reverence,
Fell, fell and fell, , ,
Not in hell, but in Love,
And Love
Then became my ladder to stand,
From the deep chasm it took my vatic soul;
Into the Sunlight and the open Air,
The wide and uninterrupted space of
SKY,
The Space of my inner being and my Life.

A beautiful bouquet of gratitude to the one who changed the course of your life. In desperation when you were groping in the dark, he came as a ray of hope! Your meeting with him must have been providential! When all doors are shut, somewhere opens a new door! This experience is the boost to live! A great tribute to Prabir Gayyen and a powerful poem! A 10

Similar to the heart felt exhortations of Prabir Gayyem. Whenever deep sadness and pain conspire, a ray of light of inner being shines through despite.
I always enjoy your critical comments.. This poem is an offering to my master Prabir Gayen..I always try to be like him..He is a magnetic person with painful heart, lighted presence and childish simplicity.. Thank you very very much for reading and commenting...
