Skeletons

Walking through the skeletons
of bygone years
I look for…
the untold words and tales!
buried deep in the bed of the Padma
I walk…
stoop down…
and dig up…!
again and again…!
the skin of my lost bed
not with a spade or axe
but with my deep pains…!
I donned…
for decades
in my lonely neurons
where the untold words and tales
of my forefathers…!
are embedded with
prayers! Choking sounds, and blood drops!
I still sob!
for the lost heaven of my dream East
where the skeletons of my forefathers
are still living in dark deep
like the corpses of dead beasts!
I miss!
I miss!
My heavenly bliss…
My ancestral house of the East
For days, years and months in grief
For days, years and months in grief
