Keep Me In Your Soul Poem by Prabir Gayen

Beautifully composed and very interesting poem

That's the only way you had chosen right from the start, I wonder who was the spoilt brat. Me with the hot water or you. Topics that were not covered fyi and kind notification, , , , , the trip to the fort, the Mahal, the evening in the southern parts...the broken bench reading.

Keep me in your heart, In silent pain be rapt, Nourish your heart with love, I am there enraptured as fear.

In spring live with the Autumn, I am yellow like a paddy field, Feel my silent words with wind, I come and go like morning breeze

Like a grey noon I am an afternoon, Light of my eyes wild with dream, Inner is sleepy with uncharted design, Outer is simply show of hollow stream.

In your mind as unconscious fetter, In your soul as unknown rhythm, I am you day with mystic night, In your footsteps I am as your way

Keep me in your soul, Like the sky holds its light, The infinite vastness and expanse, I am a deep darkness reigning all around and nothing like infant death

The flower I plucked in silent hour, The flower from the Shaw of my soul, With the subtle aura of sadness, I gave unto You my deathless ache

Keep me in your soul as pure Joy, Nourish it with pure pain of absence, I am there always as I am not, Like a pole star in a cloudy sky, I am like a bubble over a stream

In your mind as unconscious fetter, In your soul as unknown rhythm, I am you day with mystic night, In your footsteps I am as your way
