For My Dark Daughter Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

Dark daughter, dark you,
Dark the world,
Dark the Creation,
Dark the ways of life.

The path you to take,
The path I to take,
The lonesome paths leading to where,
Dark daughter, dark you, dark the world!

A span when you with me,
A time-span to come
When I, I will not be
And you in the dark, dark work so lonesome!

Today am with you,
Tomorrow may not with
And the ways that to take you have alone,
All alone, my daughter!

Lonesome the paths of life,
Lonesome you,
The myths of the world shrouded in mystery,
How to resolve the story of Creation!
