In A Silence Poem by Rafiqul Anowar

A pulse of silence,
It is my world
and Agony
In a moment of numb
No memory and no past
Obsessions
of beauty but no nature
Amongst all dead forests
No heart to feel any Love.
Alas!
Wrong one for wrong place
all the time
May be it is life
Not all are lucky in this world
Not all are happy
On a highway at noon
Beside the desert land
Roaring sand storm
of grey horizon line
of Destination end
Feels no Fear,
Beauty of sunshine
Over the mountain, far away
Hear no Rhythm
Of water
In the deep river of life
Grief over the
Cityscape of
False and Fashion
Glamors and Choirs
of Business -Money
Juxtaposition of images
of signs and commercials
Miles and Miles
Time to Time
The reflection of living
die away.
It is they say Nostalgia,
But I have no memoirs
of golden moments
but the bitterness
and the pain
Like fireflies ride
all the life
Beneath the darkness of
grassy ground.
As my poet says,
'The life of grass hoppers or a bird,
Never meets the human love'
