ইংরাজী কবিতা - দূর্বা মিত্র

LOVE OR LUST

DURBA MITRA.

Just turned 50!

Feeling light and free!!

No more pains or aches—

To bear every month.

No more fear

To conceive again.

Love is all around.

Or so I thought!

Females of my age

Pester me nonstop—

“Colour your hair,

Loose more weight,

Wear tight and open dress,dc

Add more colour on your face,

Go and hang out!”

But, why should I?

“You will look younger,

Attract young handsome men---

Enjoy the recycled youth!”

Help me God above—

Lusting after the lust

Is finally over for me!

I live for Love

Will die for Love.

Abnormal plastic beauty

May bring in Lust—

Will not last!!
