POEM - IF YOU ARE NOT WITH ME! POET - PRASANA KUMAR DALAI

Swapner Vela Sahitya Patrika (The Raft of Dreams Literary Magazine) is a Bilingual magazine in which Bengali and English literature are published from Aurangabad, MSD, W.B. Editor - Md Ejaj Ahamed

3 Aug, 2025

IF YOU ARE NOT WITH ME!

You are close to me like a feeling within

The emotion I have always valued most

I can’t survive if you are not with me

Lost in your thoughts I spend all night

Only your name is always on my lips

Time has just turned its back for years

Let me create a world of moments

lived together

I was made from your falling tears

In my smile your golden voice sings

The fond memories of stars do never fade

With those letters of days spent together

I can hardly forget those precious pages

©️®️Dr Prasana Kumar Dalai@India.
