In moments of self-doubt, when uncertainty clouds my mind, I remind myself of the way you look at me. In your eyes, I find a reflection of my true worth. In your gaze, I discover a truth that surpasses any doubt, With every glance, your eyes convey a deep belief in my worth, making me ask myself:
how could I question my worth when, in this vast world teeming with billions, you singled me out from the crowd?
How can I ever believe myself to be an ordinary soul, when out of billions of hearts, it was my heart that resonated with yours?

Conversation without words
Conversations without words
I guess that everything started with the look
Just a casual glance in my direction
Not that I was aware that this was a hook
Yet looking back I recognize the connection
Then that swift glance again as you left the room
That turn of the head that you knew that I would see
The suggestion that this conversation could resume
The unspoken words passing between you and me
On the escalator you were going up as I was going down
Still you had time to throw me a smile as we passed
You knew I could not resist and would turn around
An invitation without words that you had asked
I saw you at the store and you gave me a wink
Was this just ‘hello’ or was it something more
Then as we went through the checkout I began to blink
We the nod and smile you gave as you walked out the door
Next day at the office you gave me a quick wave
I wondered if really you were just passing by
At the back of my mind I wondered ‘Was I your slave?’
I was becoming fixated with you I do not deny
Then we met in the local park and you blew me a kiss
Should I show more interest or are you leading me on
You blew me another and I thought this must be bliss
I was convinced I was getting the big ‘C’mon’
Your finger beckoned me saying ‘Come over here’
As we met again on the train journey home
The message now seemed to be perfectly clear
You had a message for me and did not need the phone
We sat together on the bench in the park
You turned to me and our lips kind of just met
Now I was convinced I would not be left in the dark
The pathway to happiness was surely set
You took my hand and I was led away
Into a world of pleasure deep within your arms
You showed me how to love in every way
My life was swallowed up with your charms
I awoke in the morning on cloud 99
You were the champagne and I had pulled the cork
It now seems so amazing and really quite divine
How much you learn without having to talk

COLD Lava
I’m a person with depth! Not a shallow feeling that a cigarette gives,I can stand still in a storm,I can drink lava instead of water to live.My eyes are empty well, heart in blues,It’s the reason you see rain,But never see me lose,I ain’t running anymore, I ain’t hiding my sins,I ain’t dying anymore, Neither I’m living a bit.My heart doesn’t beat anymore, My eyes do not cry,My lips do not speak…

And again, another poem in English about Greek Muses. This time, I praise Urania, Muse of Astronomy and my preferred Muse. I love studying Astronomy in general (didn't go to college because I needed to work and it's a full-time course in Brazil), and I just can't simply not writing about Her. #lucavalheiro #authorialpoetry #englishpoetry #lgbtauthor #greekmythology #ancientgreece #muses #urania Image credit: Jean Louis Tocqué, "Allegoric portrait of Urania, Muse of Astronomy", 18th century, public domain. --- Urania Lu Cavalheiro (@lu.cicerone.cavalheiro) Licença CC-BY-SA 4.0 Internacional How wonderful are those stars of yours Ethereal souls shining from true past None of them meant to for eternity last Painting the dark void with many colours No words can describe the magic hours I have spent babbling about that cast Although they were gone way too fast Leaving in my memory their celestial tours Urania, my majestic Muse of Astronomy Hear my call on all those dark nights Teach me your secrets about authonomy For Yours truly is a beautiful, rare sight You share to us mortals with parcimony Making our petty lives a little more bright (em Olavo Bilac, Rio De Janeiro, Brazil) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp7wioJrhLh/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

#poetryofneyamat নেয়ামত ভূঁইয়া’র কবিতা স্বাধীনতা: অশ্রুর অস্ত্রে তোমাকে যায় না পাওয়া তোমাকে না পেয়ে নির্মূল হই শেষে; পরিচয়-রেখা দিনে দিনে যায় মুছে, নিজেকে খুঁজেছি ঘোরের ভূতের দেশে; খুঁজবো কোথায়! সে দিশাও গেছে ঘুচে। সাগর যেমন নোনা জলের সংসার; আমারও তেমনি নোনা জলের চোখ, অশ্রুকে আমি করেছি নিজের দোসর দেখতে চেয়েছি তোমার উজল মুখ। মায়ের আঁচলে মাথা গুঁজে রাখি স্নেহে, ভাত না-জোটার আক্ষেপ নিষ্ফল; সম্মোহনের চালান মগজে দে���ে, আমাকে বেঁধেছে গোলামির শৃঙ্খল। কোন রাক্ষুসে দ্বিজাতিতত্ত্ব-নীতি আমাকে রেখেছে গো-মেষের মতো পুষে, দূরান্তের এক ভাইরূপি গিরগিটি আমার শিরার রক্ত খেয়েছে চুষে। আমিতো চেয়েছি আমার ঘামের দাম আম-মানুষের রায়ের যোগ্য মান, আর তক্ষুনি বারুদ বোমার হুংকার; গর্জে উঠলো বুলেট মেশিনগান। জ্বলে উঠেছিলো আগুনের ফুল-ফুলকি একাত্তরের সে রাতে মায়ের চোখে, মায়ের আঁচল বাতাসে উড়িয়ে বলে, এই পতাকাই জড়িয়ে নে তোর বুকে। যতো তুই বসে কাঁদবি মায়ের কোলে ততো তোর পায়ে বাঁধা হবে জিঞ্জির, তোর পরিচয় লেখা আছে তোর রক্তে সেই রক্তে আগুন জ্বালালে; মুক্তি। অশ্রুর অস্ত্রে মেলেনা যুদ্ধজয়; অশ্রু কেবল মর্ম বেদনা বাড়ায়, অশ্রু মানেই আত্মবলের ক্ষয়; নিজ পরিচয় সাহারার ঝড়ে হারায়। তোমাকে না পেয়ে কেঁদেছি যুগান্তর, অপেক্ষাকে উপেক্ষা করেছে সময়, অবশেষে আমি ছেড়েছি নিজের ঘর দেশ পাবো বলে হয়েছি দেশান্তর। মুক্তিমন্ত্রে মননে জ্বেলেছি নেশা, রক্তের আখরে এঁকেছি পথের দিশা, সেই পথ ধরে তুমি এলে স্বাধীনতা কাটলো আমার দু’যুগের দুর্দশা। এখন আমি পেয়েছি আমার নাম, আমার জমিনে চালাই আমারই লাঙল, আমার ঘামে আমিই ফলাই ফসল, পদ্মা মেঘনা যমুনা আমারই জল। কোনো ঘুঘু আর যদি খেয়ে যায় ধান আবার যদি বর্গীরা দেয় হানা, স্বনামে বেনামে যেরূপে যখন পাবো আমরাই ওদের মৃত্যুর পরোয়ানা। ‘অশ্রুর অস্ত্রে মেলেনা যুদ্ধজয়’ এই মন্ত্র মননে রয়েছে গাঁথা, দমের অস্ত্রে দস্যু-দানব রুখে রক্ত কণায় লিখবো এ ‘স্বাধীনতা’। - #jorpukuria_barura #dr_neyamat #বরুড়া #Neyamat #banglakobita #bengalikobita #apoetic #a_poetics #poetryofneyamat #বাংলাকবিতা #Dr_NeyamatUllahBhuiyan #bengalikobita #কবিতা #englishpoetry #ড_নেয়ামতউল্যাভূঁইয়া #poetsofinstagram #গীতিকা #lyricist #গীতিকবিতা #সাহিত্য #poetrybyneyamat #নেয়ামত #lyrics #নেয়ামতভূঁইয়ারকবিতা #poetryofneyamat #neyamat_poetry #বাংলাকবিতা #dr_nubhuiyan #গীতিকবিতা https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpm4SXAhWjK/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

[ENGLISH Poetry] one soul, no title
trapped in a cycle, soul without title floating in space, missing its face. piles of papers, windows of neighbors, rooms of unopen drapes, mind of (un)spoken mistakes. darkness filling you whole, lost in the eyes of black charcoal. staring eyes into eyes, face to face, getting lost in that unknown maze. lips on the lips, kiss - kiss! - on thy skin, breath marked with tonic and gin. dirt behind nails, ten fingers - red-stained, mouth with cherry-red lipstick obtained. the unspoken love, intimate, beloved, memories stay blurry, but the letter says “yours, truly”. the cold statues - dark, beautiful, yet still, candle flickers with the movement of the quill. the light dies with a single drop of rain, the vision blackens as rose petals in vain. suddenly - that rotten feeling, all strong and consuming, how obsessed you are (not) to keep it all in. the cold prickles, even pinches the porcelain silk caused by pure snowflakes coloured with milk. mask hides the truth, gloves possible warmth, though there is charm, we cannot ignore the harm. they danced with words, got close with records, but now, the black swan has fallen as its heart has been stolen.
