THE MIDNIGHT BREEZE- Preetipurna Kundu

The midnight breeze grabbing me tight,

Wiping my unclear thoughts,

Adding the fragrance of love,

Took me to a lane

Where I was standing alone,

Belike waiting for myself,

A look to right and then to left,

Oh! I'm somewhere I never have been,

Am I in future or back into the past,

The breeze slowly released me,

Eyes rolling down,

With a shame in my heart town,

Unable to face the person,

Whom I have lost or never met

and became this version,

The merrier me gazing at me,

Standing still there to embrace me,

The storm of thoughts rose high as full moon tide,

I turned to run back where I used to reside,

I ran till I became breathless,

I ran till my body unloves it's soul.

There came midnight breeze ceasing my way again,

Spreading the blanket of placidity,

Made me realise I came too far,

And I fougth too much,

caressing me, whispered to take a pause,

To take a pause from my inner wars,

To take a pause from my outer mess,

With it's soft flow and leisurely vibrance merged me into my forgotten soul.

A serene silence steped into my mind,

Oh God so peace! Cried my heart,

All hail breeze! Replied my soul.
