A Large Wave

Having collected the conch-shell
On the coast of an ocean
Scratching by it,
I write your sweet name on the wetted sand
And watch the dashing waves till the long time
Just at the right moment,
A large wave comes
And go away drenching my feet
And make the sand plain
It erases your ever memorable name
I put many paper yachts
Upon the waves of the ocean
Some of these sink in the ocean
And lose its fake existence
While some of these go away freely on the long way
Then, I come back to home with a lot of grieves

My Imagination

Thou art my imagination
It is cause of my acceptance
Seeing thee, the moon begin to fade
And move with thy falling steps
Peeping towards the earth
The fringe of the twinkling stars stays
And tries to steal the shining of thy face
The sun changes its rays’ colour
Seeing thy rosier lips
The clouds have stolen the collirium
Of thy eyes to make black itself
And asked for thy scarf
To overshadow upon the earth

Love Is Ashes

I will not write any letter to you by my precious tear
You think of not a bit and without reading it, you tear

Not only so, but you run over it and make a false pretence
While you show a lit to it and hurt my heart in ill-sense

Everywhere, the ashes of my love flies, on moving sphere
You give this grief, falls as pearls from eyes, many a tear
