For my sake!!

-



I asked everyone, 
Even I gave them some time to see.
They wanted but couldn't 
and this is the reason why
 they've abandoned me.
They tried to give every possible reason
 to make me understand,
Helpless ME couldn't revolt 
because nothing was in my hand.
It's easy to forgive when the 
canvas is empty,
 But when the shades are running out
 You can only feel pity
 And then I moved on 
without any second thought,
Through scares, wounds, and 
the tough battle that I fought
 I was neither weak nor scared
 just wanted to feel secure by collecting 
the shattered parts of me 
to be repaired.

Little Notes to Myself

-

I like to keep notes. I keep notes when I travel... alone, with friends, or with family. Not just to remember things, but to understand what I’m feeling. To make sense of my thoughts. I note how my favourite songs match my mood, how one song I played during a flight still makes my heart feel the same way. I keep notes because they take me back,  to moments I didn’t expect, to things I saw and felt in silence, to a sudden feeling of wonder. I write about what I experience, how I feel, what I expected, and what really happened. It’s the best way to capture a feeling while you’re still living it. So, keep writing little notes to yourself. Because one day, while cleaning your bookshelf, you might find a piece of paper… and relive a day that made you smile, cry, or just feel alive... By  Monira Rahman Bhuiyal

Insecurity

-
It's a feeling I have known for a long time, Echoed deep from the childhood, unseen and unheard. From the relatives to friends, even those close and dear, Insecurities planted in me, growing year by year. I'm insecure of myself, afraid to be alone, Told only smart, pretty girls are known. My skin tone is not bright enough to shine, Insecure of my nose, not sharp and fine. My eyes, not large, fail to impress, My speech, not well groomed, lacks sweetness. Even on my walk, don't maintain any beauty code, Insecurities are built into me on societal mode. Each one is valid, each one is backed, So why, one day, did he nag? "Why so insecure?" he asked, with a sigh, As if the reasons weren't clear, or I couldn't comply. By  Monira Rahman Bhuiya

Revisit - Memory, Time and You

  I want to go back to that lazy day, Lying beside you, with nothing to say. No fear of people seeing us there, Just you and me, without a care... That quiet noon at Victoria Palace, You showed me the sky, and I saw your face. You taught me how to take a shot, Of the sky just after the rain had stopped... A yellow cab, that same old song, I told you the meaning as we moved along. Singing together, the roads so wide, With you smiling, sitting by my side... A calm, big restaurant, just us two, Sharing our meal, just me and you. No crowd, no noise, just peaceful air, And all my love, sitting right there. I showed you the streets, each lane and name, Telling you stories, never the same. Every corner, every spot, I shared with you the love I got... From tiny fights to your first touch, I want it again, I miss it so much. But this time, no hiding, no fear, I want the whole world to see us clear... Not in the dark, not far from the crowd, I want to stand with you, strong and proud. To lov...
