I Am Sorry Poem by Sankhajit Bhattacharjee

I Am Sorry

Rating: 5.0


I

O, Tagore, you told somewhere-
one must not lose faith on humankind.
In this century the atmosphere has changed,
one can sense the wrong direction of wind.
I am sorry
because your idea I can no longer follow.
In this era one must not keep faith on others
as humankind has turned hollow.

II

O, Tagore, you told somewhere-
what you wished you achieved hardly
and what you achieved, you never wanted to keep.
My wish is never fulfilled utterly-
I expect something,
something else I acquire.
Whatever I get, I never want to lose,
forever I will keep it as a symbol of honor.

Remembering Tagore and his beautiful ideology is worthy. Indeed world has changed s alot to have faith but still the goodness never departs. That's why we still live. Indeed we all want to have something and don't want to loose. Want to preserve forever. Good work

Have faith... humanity is always symbolic..... Without it life is empty.....faith brings awareness...
