(This incident ached my heart a lot by seeing in his eyes the rays of good days ahead.So I key-boarded my heaviness here. )
“One day is my
day,
my coveted
arrival’s day,”
expected he with gleeful
eyes,
lurked and longed
for the finest day
to breathe the
familiar air
of his beloved Nation.
Never ever had he
thought of
this sort of lot
in life,
when his lower limbs, candidly
touched the milieu banned
for strangers of other countries
touched the milieu banned
for strangers of other countries
from encroaching and intruding.
It was not a cuff, but the forces’
handcuffs that encircled
his hands like bangles,
the symbol of
slavery,despite
an allegory
however he tried
to prove there, seemed scary.
Dungeon that received
him
with
derision and disdain
as the insignia of the regiment
as the insignia of the regiment
that enslaved him, would, he knew,
provide him, torment and torture, till the
dawn of the day, he waited for.
His hay days and
young days
His dreams and warmth
in depth,
his wellness and fitness in toto
All gone in vain
being in the hands
Of his
foes, his wishes were crushed
Without a drop of
clemency.
Days, months and
years in decade
had fallen and faded in the current
of the great ocean,theTime
had fallen and faded in the current
of the great ocean,theTime
though his yens had some lochs
of hope to escape from their clutches
to the tomorrows’ togetherness.
to the tomorrows’ togetherness.
The toddling steps of his little daughter,
the cuddling ways of his half, better
loving look of his motherly sister,
all loomed in his
sleep often.
heart his throbbed profoundly
heart his throbbed profoundly
like mortar's pounding sound.
Hard days, he had to cut since
insipid
food and untidy bed
were doled out, with harsh treatment
in
the hostile country as nemesis
to
his indigenous nation, where he
enjoyed only sugary merriment.
A thud determining his fatal fate,
knocked out on his cerebral part
sent
him to a perilous shell,
which they called a hospital.
alas! Sabarjit, with unfulfilled yen
arrived near his kin in a closed coffin.
