Human Self Poem by Saptarshi Bagchi

Human Self

Rating: 5.0


I am, an angel, I fell from the heaven
I, that rainy day, brought revolution

I knew, in my mind, I had a purpose
I was alone, yet a complete universe

I am no one if alone, everyone when I pray
I keep quite, yet the world honour my say

I am rigid like stone, like breeze I flow
I am here forever, but everyday I cry to go

I want if, can limit the undefined infinity
I, but just opposite, I lower my own dignity

I close my eyes little more, the more I see
I make others cry, to see them smile for me

I judge the sins, alas! myself get punished
I surprise everyone, I am the most astonished

I love to hate & hate to love, them whom I worth
I am always the damn lier, but I spread the truth

I play like sweet child, I fight without my head
I am killed everyday, I am born in every breadth

I know what to do, but tremble every step
I have a figure, but you cant see the shape

I may be legend, may be neighbour next door
I rip my heart apart and then mend its sore

I pain for my love, I love to pain my love
I am just the dirty dust, or the holy dove

I know what I am saying, yet miss every word
I search myself, so I try to reach the lord

I am a human, one kind of precious creature
I am a gift, not thrown, by, of, for the nature.
