I Do Not Know Why

by Priyanka Bhowmick

I do not know why

the sudden wind comes up

through the wreckedness

ruining the beauty of earth

with its rage.

I do not know why

the sun shines

so outrageously

that nature is bound to hide

her face beneath the shade of clouds.

I do not know why

the mind of human

dwells in the home of devil

becoming the fate

of others' lives.

I do not know why

the child cries

coming out of its mother's womb

though it's an occasion

a festive moment.

I do not know why

the kitten runs after its mother

though it has to spend

its entire life

being self dependent.

I do not know why

the mountain stands so still

even in the seductive power

of breeze passing by it

each moment.

I do not know why

the tears come down

even when I stop it

sealing all my emotions

sealing all my love.

I do not know why

so many questions

arise, though the answer

hidden in the core

of life.
