An Ode To Kolkata
Not so long ago, when I used to write in MSN Spaces, I had posted it there. It has been a long long time, since I have switched my home base & here I am now; on Blogger. But a recent trip filled me with things long due. So this is what is due from my side. Here is an edited version of something from my past...
December 22
There is a place in Kolkata which has seen me falling in love and loosing everything afterwards. NO, it didn't happen recently, as recently as yesterday or last month. It has been a long time I have left Kolkata and always longing to go back with something big on my mind. But that numbing feeling is subsiding these days. Why, do you really wanna know? My B'day is coming up and when I look back at last 3 years, I feel nothing but sad, terrifyingly sad...
... And now is coming 2005. And I am a little scared. For I hardly know what the next year holds for me. I don't want to plan my life and live accordingly. Let me take it as it comes. As for the city, which gave me my first dash of hope & opened a path of success (& etc etc), here are a few words...

An Ode To Kolkata
I await Kolkata
The day I come back to you
To embrace the mist of diesel,
To taste the sweat of labour.
I am coming home Kolkata
To a place I grew emotionally
To an adolescent from a child
I am on my way honey,
Now make me a Man.
The day I come back to you
To embrace the mist of diesel,
To taste the sweat of labour.
I am coming home Kolkata
To a place I grew emotionally
To an adolescent from a child
I am on my way honey,
Now make me a Man.
Complete my teaching
Of Joy and Sorrow;
Of Journeys & Halts;
Of Love & Hatred.
Fill me with feelings,
Of creating a wave;
Of embarking a change;
Of going beyond the bridge.
Of Joy and Sorrow;
Of Journeys & Halts;
Of Love & Hatred.
Fill me with feelings,
Of creating a wave;
Of embarking a change;
Of going beyond the bridge.
Wash my past,
Filled with filth.
Of loathed love.
Of a harboured guilt.
Filled with filth.
Of loathed love.
Of a harboured guilt.
Very soon, I'll be there.
Wanting to sleep pretty,
Dreaming of the days to come.
I have been away too long,
Scared now as hell.
I am coming home soon,
Wrap in your arms when I land...
