Eyes – A poem from Bengal

Suhina Biswasmajumdar, a poetess from Kolkata, shares her new poem

Eyes’re reflection of her soul pure and true; True and indifferent, indifferent and absorbent; who cares what those eyes perceive or what message send

Suhina Biswasmajumdar

Suhina Biswasmajumdar is a writer from Kolkata, Bengal. A life-long devotee of Swami Vivekananda, Suhina is against any discrimination. Two significant life-forces propel her – ‘love’ and ‘writing’. Suhina’s book ‘Tumi’ (you) and Songs of Silence (A Journey to Love), are collections of her poetic thoughts.

Eyes

Eyes’re reflection of her soul pure and true

True and indifferent, indifferent and absorbent

Who cares what those eyes perceive or what message send

What they hide in smiles and tears

Do they feel … sense or only convey like those messengers

From broken yellow pages,

Don’t know, though who knows hardly open their mind

Like the curse of Cassandra eyes only see can’t change

Can’t break or make the spell

The spell of life that forces the race to move,

Blindfolded…. with pairs of visiting eyes.
