My heart skips a beat Every time I look into your eyes Can hardly believe What I see and feel Is it true or a hallucination? Our bond, unforbidden and unacceptable Grows stronger and unbreakable With time Though laden with thorns And smoothly flows Like a river into the ocean By Susmita Mukherjee

It's not a crime To be loved and accepted Valued and respected as a whole It's all in human nature And those who deny the fact They are lying to themselves. by Susmita Mukherjee

There is only one life to live For that I am sure Rebirth is a doctrine A reincarnation of souls Its evidence is unproved A mystery unsolved So, whatever our heart desires This life is what we have all. by Susmita Mukherjee

Poetic thoughts pervade my mind As I glance upon Nature’s beauty The sparkle of sun rays on the ocean’s brine Zephyr’s waltz through lush green meadows Love’s muse that captures my soul Emotions aroused through passions galore There is no end to a heart’s pour When inspiration comes calling   by Susmita Mukherjee

My love is a graph of smouldering intensity It peaks at blissful ecstasy Lows are the pangs of discontentment With love in my life, I am blessed   Hypnotised by its allure There is no remedy for it or cure My heart exuberant with joy I love you just as you are. by Susmita Mukherjee

আমি একলা পথে হাঁটি গন্তব্য আমার জানা নেই বিষন্নতা ঘিরে আমায় থাকে একলা চলার নিঃসঙ্গতার কাছে। বিশ্বাস ঘাতকতার চলন্ত দৃষ্টান্ত হয়েছি আমি ক্ষতবিক্ষত নিজেকে করেছি শক্ত মুখে হাসির আড়ালে। ©® সুস্মিতা মুখার্জী

In the battle between the heart versus the head I am tormented by depression due to the ongoing fight between what is right, and what wrong confuses me, no end I give in to love's calling by Susmita Mukherjee

My fate was like a coin tossed Pirouettes in the air Will it be a harbinger of hope, Or the herald of despair? Spinning it lands on a decisive end To an inevitable and sealed intent. by Susmita Mukherjee

I recall every moment With gratitude in my soul When serendipity visited Unexpectedly knocking at my door The effusiveness of true love Sparkled like red wine Intoxicated my heart, soul and mind Love soared on the wings of a bird Desire was sealed with the warmth of a kiss Hypnotic romance filled my life with its hues Blessed with the magical glory of love I felt amazingly alive by Susmita Mukherjee

You are always In the back of my mind No matter what I do Or where I am Beyond clockwork or reasons Digging down into my very core Relentless you won’t let me forget A presence I cannot forsake. by Susmita Mukherjee

I often curse and question myself Why am I so foolishly faithful? When you are faithless And drink life to the lees Do I bring my destruction A tremor causing despair Obstructing my own welfare Hopelessly into a mindscape From where I can’t escape. by Susmita Mukherjee

Isn’t it strange we open our hearts? As strangers who hardly know each other In this imaginary world called wonderland I don’t know exactly where I stand? Lost, I need to save my soul Before in engulfs me as a whole. by Susmita Mukherjee

Sometimes in a moment I feel I need you beside me But realize we won’t last a while My thoughts are so illogical, unfounded I can’t help but loathe myself   Love came disguised, as it did to you My need to talk to you sometimes Transgresses my rational point of view Knowing well my necessity to slay the dragon of desire by Susmita Mukherjee

History is a mirror of your past The more you look closer The less you like the mistakes that aghast Images that flash across your mind Make you change or wallow in self-pity Lessons learned should never be forgotten To shape a future, a new dawn with integrity. by Susmita Mukherjee

In a folklore, Passed down by word of mouth Lived a maiden Star-crossed by time and beauty Floated in her dreams Farfetched from real life Once grounded she fell hard Woken from her trance To face the world alone And the hard facts of reality To toil towards an uncertain future. by Susmita Mukherjee

As we lock eyes Our gaze defies bounds of time Lost in our world of togetherness The keys to our hearts Open to love's wonders In the depth of the ocean Where souls do meet In an inseparable bond of oneness. ©®Susmita Mukherjee

I had never been able to attribute A face  to my soulmate My guiding star to a better being and self With whom I can be myself Awaken my inner child Be vulnerable and wild Without fear of retribution or judgement Twin flames ignited in a cosmic bond That transcends human comprehension or sense A platonic connection between two best friends Kindred spirits fated in true love Persisting through the ravages of time Into a pure spiritual plane by Susmita Mukherjee

In fluid times Where altering relationships Have become a trend Through varying circumstances Change of heart and mind Vibes that stress and negate Attractions dissipate Caring and sharing, a distant aim ©®Susmita Mukherjee
