No one knows no one

Dhriti S. Sukla 2001 (Silchar)



You don't know your children
For he born in another era.
You know his living, loving
Sometimes you are well known to his belongings
But their belongings are not them.
You don't know your beloved one
Sometimes you are possessed with her deeds.
But you can't see beyond it.

You fool yourself as you come and go
Into thinking that somebody else you know.
You may never know what they know
They hide themselves from thou
In no time, clinch the right thing
Or else, rest will go in vain.
