R.I.P.

You ask for words

and I am left with none.

Silence is all I can give you, today.

Nindiya re...

Sleep eludes when the mind is not at ease.
Eyes yearn to trap it even if it is for a fleeting moment.

Mother's lap (dad's too) is one place where we all found sleep effortlessly. Even when it was difficult, there were tender hands which lulled us into a gentle sleep. I miss the magic of those hands. I wonder, if I'll find sleep there again coz I know I'll worry about the well-being of those weary hands even as they would stroke me gently, coaxing me to sleep.

P.S. Tried uploading the video but I couldn't so just sharing the link of a beautiful song for insomniacs like me. Nindiya Re by Kaavish presented by Coke studio.

A day to remember

Today was a beautiful day.

After a long long time, I lolled in nothingness and did what my heart prompted. I was not bothered with any deadlines or protocols. Loved the silence of my phone which was broken only by a couple of calls. I simply drowned myself in melody and every moment of it was blissful, listened to bangla gaan the whole day. I can't understand the language much. Still, I loved every bit of it. I Googled for the English translation of the lyrics but couldn't find any except for "Tomake Chai" (thanks to Rajbir for telling me about the song). For the last few days I was ruing about my failed plans, it was a much awaited holiday to get away from the city coz after a long time we were going to have a really long weekend and it seemed just perfect for a mini-adventure trip but then.....blah...blah...blah....shall spare you the details. Anyways, better luck next time. But, I am not complaining anymore...smiles....smiles....coz it was a day well-spent in bliss and yes, I missed someone, my bro (dear you shall live in my memory more than the days you spent on this earth). And, a day is no day if it wouldn't end with a tinge of sadness coz without it all that bliss would come to naught.

The day dramatically turned out to be like a bitter-sweet piece of chocolate. Its the bitterness which is still lingering in my mouth but am OK with it coz that is what makes me more human.  Its not pessimism but a sweet realization of a bitter fact of life. It is way past 12 but to me the night is still young and my day isn't over.

P.S. Thanks to everybody whom I have met and also to those whom I may never meet. Each one of you make my life beautiful. A big Thank you to all. Sharing the links of some of the songs that I had been listening all day:
Tomar jonno 

Gaibona
Brishti tomake dilam
Ami eto je tomai
Hridoy 
Tomake Chai

I want you...

I want you...

Only you......

Bad, really bad...

I am crazy about you.

No, crazy is not the word. I am maaaaddd about you.

Call me insane maybe that will make you realize, how much I love you.

I love you to the extent of becoming your slave 

the rest of my life

just to have you once.

I am sick, sick with desires

of you.

I bet, you will never find a better lover 

than me.
