Life

By Humayun Kabir

Who shall explain to me the tragedy
Of love unrequited? Of deferred hope
That wearily treads the downward slope
Of untimely death? The sweetest melody
Is hushed before the final harmony
Has soothed the discord of the tortured soul
Struggling through conflicts towards its goal
To pierce the enigma of life: to solve its mystery.
Perhaps after all there is no enigma here,
No mystery to solve because there is no mystery,
Only the painted shadow of a huge mockery
Whose pretence we see through when we near
And gaze intently at its empty vacancy,�
No magic, no beauty, but only a hideous leer.
