Poem by NilavroNill Shoovro
For The Next Millennium
It was dark
In the middle of the night
The lonely stars
Far away from each others
Like the divorced couples
Were silent
Listening to the primordial music
Time and eternity
Together were playing with the chords
The silhouette of our dead souls
Were dancing in silence
Finding each others
In their beloved arms
Each step
Was measured with
Our forlorn grief
Yet rhythmic in accord
With the human dreams
Defeated yet not in vain
The night was overwhelmed
With both the pains and pangs
Of the primordial womb
Unfolding once again
To fulfill the human dreams
Of love and compassion
Then the alphabets will take over
Designing the vowels and the consonants
For the next millennium
