RE - ASCENT - -

nothing regret, that's happened in life,
amid the sand castles and waves 
hadn't the compromise,
hence traceless
remained
affinity,
a search which reaches to inner cave,
destination itself gives flaming
indication, a person finds
the meaning of self
importance, 
clouds
of suffering gradually moves away - -
in that transparency, we can 
learn the difference 
between 
the 
good and evil, self analysis reaches 
to culminating point, from 
there starts new 
beginning,
and 
that morale brings the personality - - 
toward the unexplored 
horizons - -

REBIRTH OF EMOTION - -

after releasing you from my emotion,
gradually opening the gate of 
relief with new hopes,
now I knew the 
meaning 
of 
camouflage, perhaps, one day heart 
will learn the survival among 
the crowd of colored
masks, again 
life will 
get 
the address of real love, still some - 
faces have authenticity, the 
fragrance of truth 
never extinct,
it remains
in the 
depth of soul, and that perception 
says life will be successful 
one day - -

SOMEWHERE IN REMOTE - -

let me to live in my way, do not intervene 
into the conscience, that's only true 
friend which supports in 
bad times, your 
definition 
for 
life, maybe something else, but I've to go 
just across the skyline, in your view 
the destination is the another 
name of materialism,
in my outlook 
the life 
is 
the beauty of nocturnal flower which gives
celestial aroma before falling down,
do not break my emotion for
your pleasure, let me 
to live according 
my persona,
still 
the journey of life is incomplete, I've to go -
far away - -

JUSTICE FOR WOMEN

The growing crime against women in India raises several questions. Though literacy graph is increased. For some extent women are becoming more independent, working in key position, supporting in development of society, in large for nation too. However still they have to face discrimination in routine life, insecurity always remains with them, in office, in street, in travelling even in home. Why Indian society does not changed after 66 years of independence, why orthodox tradition is chained them as a weaker sex ? Answers and logic maybe several. Though we worship woman as a form of goddess with deep faith. But in general we forget to respect them in proper way. 
For women liberation in past there were born so many social reformers, and Bengal particularly leading on them. Raja Ram Mohan Roy, Vidyasagar, there are so many names who were honest supporter of women liberation. In Bengali literature also a revolutionary flow appeared during renaissance of Bengal, and later we got Mahashweta Debi, Ashapurna Debi. Once Bengal has shown the path of social reforms and sowed the seeds of independence. More or less rest of India also influenced in comprehensive way from them. The history pages are full of those names, but why condition of women not changed. While women population covers 49 percent.
Indeed, so called our largest democracy failed to make strict rules regulation for their protection. Even they can not get their actual share in political scenario. Because male dominated society never changed the decomposed mind. In home or out of home women always remained dependent on males. Sometimes women are found prey of another women. Particularly in home many times it is observed that woman creates problem for woman. And that's result, women are facing their identity crisis. Needs an extensive and rapid changes in law to punish the criminals. There should be also a strong bridle on so called fake religious guru or priest without any discrimination of religion. These people are destroying the Indian society in the name of religion. The biggest responsibility goes on the shoulder of political leaders, but they are the most corrupt and criminals. Rape, female feticide, dowry death, domestic violence, sexual assault, list is endless.
Every citizen must raise voice against the injustice of women. We must learn to respect their dignity because they are creator of men. If they will develop, the entire society will progress. Particularly the vigilant women organisations should support strongly. They can change the present insecure scenario because they constitute the half of population of India. We must vote after knowing the quality of candidate in next election.

THE TURNING POINT - -

that's the same turning point, wherefrom 
many paths are derived, this is
the spot where life has 
learned to 
differentiate between the reality and - - -
faux character, from here 
begins the real 
journey 
of life, tho' it's not easy to off mask, but -
the inner mirror becoming slowly
apparent, the conscience
became more 
lucid,
the reality of your promise has exposed,
now, I've to choose the authentic
reflection in the crowd 
of brassy faces,
I know -
very well, it's not so easy to identify the -
toxin tip, however one should 
try till last breath to touch
the ultimate beauty,
which can 
change the inner combustion in replete -

DREAMS NEVER DIE - -

I saw only dream with you, cascade,
mountain, tree, flowering plant,
hadn't asked for the 
beauty of 
heaven, in return what you've given,
if you can, please think in 
leisure, I know you've
not that depth 
of sense,
for you nothing more than somatic
love, and that materialistic 
desire made you 
a machine,
which controlled by others, indeed 
you killed your soul, maybe 
some more time is 
needed 
to emerge from the torment, but -
I'm sure, I can smile again,
I'll love again, the 
blooming 
vale still calls me, dreams are alive, 
they never die - -

NEEDS RE-BLOOMING - -

then a new beginning, every lesion 
has time bound effect, nobody
dies for someone, the 
mistake teaches 
recoup, 
tho' marks remain for sometimes - 
memories chase to some 
distance, later extinct
in shadows of 
past - - 
do not enfold again and again in - -
your delicate wrapper, it's
not so easy to recollect
scattered emotion,
life wants 
again
flowering valley, maybe we all not 
be there, but it's eternal 
truth that flowers 
will never 
forget 
to bloom, you wait or not season 
has to change, and that's 
life, nobody waits
for someone
lifetime.

NOBODY KNOWS THE FUTURE - -

the journey of life never stops,it goes 
in its way, if, you've not care 
the value of others 
emotion,
nobody will be with you in last, it's - - 
easy to live for himself, but 
there's a lot of 
pleasure 
to look smile in other face, do not be 
self - centered, the money isn't 
every thing, you can not 
buy the internal 
happiness
with - -
the some pieces of paper, today is 
maybe your day, the crown is 
fickle, whenever it'll fall,
nobody can say,
prediction 
of the
longevity wasn't perfect, conceited -
temple priest submerged in 
knee deep water, the 
river and destiny
had some
mutual secret agreement or not, no -
one knows, but the man doesn't
emerge again on the 
surface - -

DEPENDS IN YOUR VISION - -

how the night elapsed, only knows
sleep-less sky, deserted 
heart just looked 
one by one 
drowning
stars,
you do not know, the quiescent - -
combustion, there was 
light everywhere 
but gloom 
existed
in the depth of emotion, pieces of
soaked realization scattered
farthermost, last night 
I've seen closely
the last 
breath of nocturnal bloom before
falling down on the earth, 
it's different matter 
for others, 
who looks the droplet of eyes as
crystalline dew - -

NEVER SAY GOODBYE - -

it's not so difficult to break the arrogant 
bridge, in love, defeat and victory, 
all are equal, some steps 
you've to keep ahead
some ardor I've 
to create,
everything we can get in life but true - - 
love, after losing never, nobody 
has the holistic beauty,
reform is the 
part of 
life, neither I'm the complete man nor 
you've perfection, there should 
be a concession always,
it's easy to shake 
hands,
but meeting of heart is not so simple, -
rethink at least once, before 
saying goodbye, the 
wounded 
resonance will chase whole life - - - - -
