Anika Farjana Poet Free verse

A wind to my youth

I heard a wind breezing in my ear
It took me to a time when I was young
I saw an willow tree bending with the wind 
It took me to a time when thousand tears were shade
Every pain felt like a blade 

A time when thousand rules were broke
A person I wanted to hold
A moment where nothing felt incomplete 
Nothing was blue 
Nothing was gray

Climbing through the roof I saw a bird 
It flew to the people I used to love 
It looked to the people for whom I starved 
It met some people who lost me 
It met some people whom I lost
It met some people I never lost

When It came back to me 
Asked if I regret meeting them
How can I regret such a time when my youth ricocheted 
See through me and you'll hear the voices 
It's best among all of the noises

A song felt so good
Some people who weren't dead
Some memories that wasn't vanished
A glass which wasn't splited 
An excuse where thousand reasons were given

Everything was shining 
Because a version of me kept trying
