Forsaken

 You know Adam, Eve can forget the snakes and the apple of discords in heavens, 

Later what followed her, 

The stingy stones till she was atoned to death in her solace.

She can forget whoever touched her beyond fences, the monsters, the insects, the worms, the wolves in the woods- who didn’t ask for her mercy nor consent. 

She can forget in between whoever has ever come in disguise of Columbus, 

Who would guide her tiresome way. 

She can forget those trials that actually delayed her destiny to meet Adam,

Somewhere beyond deserts, 

Beyonds mirages and canals- in other continent. 

Yet, she had a whole another world to cross to meet her destined one. 

She had to cross thousands and miles of distance to be with the chosen ones. 

Whatever was in between with an imposter, 

It was a rampage, a complete disaster! 

Whatever comes her way now is a distraction! 

She can forget those by minimal interactions!

But, how to forget the heavenly desire of finding Adam, on the other side of the world?

On different occasion?

On different pivotal moment? 

Where river meets the ocean and chaos meets the calm,

She can forget all these inconveniences, 

But, how to forget the great love she was destined for?! 

The one that will reunite her with the supreme God! 

The one for whom she will say, 

It was worth it to suffer all along!

Who can mend her broken pieces softly and miraculously,

Who will whisper to her ears, 

I know it all, that you have held on,

For too long! 

Now, release.

Release the pain, all that you have stored. 

I have come, now take me as your cure! 

Take me in, accept me, 

My diva of octagons!

I have known your sufferings and 

Loved your sadness. 

Yes, I am in love with your sadness,

I understand your pain.

So, I love you with all have, in rain and in vein!

  কবি ফারহিন আক্তার ভূঁইয়া ন্যান্সি জন্মেছেন মরুভূমির দেশ আমিরাতের ফুজেরার দিব্বা শহরে। বাবা ফজলুল হক ভূঁইয়ার চাকুরি সূত্রে দুবাইতে অবস্থান করেছেন অর্ধেক জীবন। ফারহিন ন্যান্সি , দেশে এসে পড়াশুনা করছেন বর্তমানে , ঢাকা বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ের সমাজবিজ্ঞান বিভাগের স্নাতকোত্তর পর্যায়ে। ছোটবেলা থেকে লেখালেখির সাথে সম্পৃক্ত কবির বেশ কয়টি লেখা কবিতা প্রকাশিত হয়েছে বিভিন্ন পত্র - পত্রিকা , লিটয় ম্যাগাজিনগুলো এবং সংকলনে। ইউএসএইড ২০১৯ - এ সেরা পঞ্চাশ গল্পরচিয়তার মধ্যে স্থান পেয়েছেন। এছাড়াও , বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ের সাহিত্য সাময়িকীসহ , ব্লগে নিয়মিত লেখেন। বাংলা - কবিতা ডটকমে বেশ সরব ছিলেন। দেশ্মাতৃকাকে ভালোবেসে , দেশ ও মাটির মানুষের জন্যে উনি গভীর অন্তর্দৃষ্টি দিয়ে দর্শনসমৃদ্ধ কবিতা রচয়ন করেন। মানুষের মুক্তি ও উত্তরণ তার লেখালেখির উদ্দেশ্য।                   শিল্পীর মৃত্যু                   ...

Ache in my body

Image
  My lips ache as if they want to be bitten  and smitten in your love and admiration. My hips swirl in ache as if they want to twirl  around you, dance in motion. My heart is in ache as if it doesn't know where   it belongs, to whom, My eyes are in pain, they are numb and sore. They say your eyes are beautiful like droplets of dews, Like diamonds in the sky. But, only a few knows how much tears it shed, Shed like an ocean. I have cried in pain like a destitute losing all her belongings, I have cried in pain like a beggar begging for an alms of love and warmth. I have cried like a Jew, a refugee Muslim for a bit of shelter in a foreign land, I have cried like a blind person for a bit of compassion and an ounce of aid. I have cried and whimpered in pain like an impaired person for quick recovery, I have cried like an infant hungry for love and needing to cling to somebody. I have cried an ocean for my lost ones whom I loved dearly, I have cried in agony, realizing...

Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus

Image
 Men's and Women's worlds are different, And, it will remain different. Yet, men and women combine their journey  to integrate something more beautiful, Either converge and build something unique, Or, infuse more difference and indifference. Men are from Mars, The warriors who are always engaged in war zones, Survival and responsibilities,  With other brothers fighting for life and for good, Women are from Venus, Their perspectives are different than their divine counterparts, Women have a larger than life emotional inner world, Where they are content with few people in their lives, They take pride in— Quality over quantity.  They count on blessings over benefits. Their inner circle is rich in bonding and metaphors. Not superficial, not profit-based,  Their identity is emulsified and solidified by  the deep surface they dive into, Whereas men thrive outwardly, Their outer world is rich with the combination  of deep bonds and superficial connections, Th...
