Poem : Two People

( This is the english version of my bengali poem' Duti Manush')

One  person  dreams,

Another  shatters those  dreams.

One  moves  forward

While  another  pulls  back.

One  is  a  soulmate,

Another  calculates.

One  lives  in  joy,

The other's  balance is empty in the end.

One  blends  with  all,

Another  is  selfish.

One  lives  within  the heart,

While  another  becomes  a stranger.

One   speaks  freely,

Another  remains  grim.

A flowery  smile on one's face,

The  other is  a masked  braggart.
