IN LOVE OF A PICTURE
(In fond memory of Sushant Singh Rajput)
Original: Assamese: Gayatri Phukan

Sushant
The many times
I look at you
That many times
I feel mesmerized
at
The smile
and
a pair of simple eyes
What was there
in your eyes
Am getting lost in its depth
The much I get to know you
The much I am fascinated
The ones that were jealous of you
Must be still burning in envy
Noticing the countless hearts
That loves you
I hope
Their burning never to end
It is only the luckiest few
That may command so much of love
I am certain
People make no mistake
To pick up a piece of diamond

Instinctively
I have caressed your smile
Planted a kiss
Whether you are there physically or not
That does not matter for me
For me
You had always been a picture
Still
I feel very much heartbroken today
Thinking that
You no longer exist
In this corporal world
