“Someone….Somewhere”

Sudhansu Sekhar Prusty 

Someone is, somewhere, 

Deep within me 

I know not if anyone can feel, 

cause I never make a show off 

I never mind what others think or say… 

Still I believe someone is there, somewhere, 

Deep within me 

With eyes open wide, I see her sight, 

and feel her within, by closing my eyes…. 

her thoughts make up her absence, 

although not being near me I feel her presence 

Which make all the sense to me 

No one knows, what does she mean

On whom only, I can lean. 

Yes, it’s true I have her desire 

And this adds to the fire 

The flame of love 

Burning deep within me, 

No one can see, or hear….. 

Cause I love to burn alone

in thought of her…. 

No one can ever take her place. 

For I know her abode is my only rest

She is only mine 

Her presence adds the gleam of life 

Her touch so intent and filling 

I love her now and ever, 

I love her to the fullest 

I swear my life 

as she is ……now here. 

And she is there, somewhere 

deep within me……
