Storm - Before And After Poem by Tonmoy Datta Mishu

Storm - Before And After

This time, the wind blows,
Just like I wanted once.
I wanted to feel the strength of the wind,
Standing by the seashore.
I wanted to give all of me to the nature.
I was hungry,
There was no shelter for me.
It was cold, I was shivering.
I didn't know what to do,
I was all alone.
Once, I was happy,
It's time, which changed me.
I had lost my family, my home,
And everything I had once.
I also had a dog,
I used to feed him everyday.
My mother didn't have any idea about it.
Yea, I wanted to feel the wind
But the storm that raised that night
Took everything from me.
My happiness, my dream,
All died too.
Was I alive?

Now it's been two years,
But I cannot stop my mind asking,
Was there any way to save them?
Can I ever forget the last words of my little sister?
'Help me brother! I am stuck.
Water is rising so high and high.
Brother help! '

I don't wonder how I survived.
I just wonder, asking God, Why?
What was my fault?
I never got my answer.
Seeing me alive,
I laugh all the time.
Tears come to my eyes,
But believe me,
I forgot crying from that time.
