Brand Never Fade

Tonight in Uttardangapara, I have no space,
Four shadows in one house, but one name still glows.
They took the floor, but not the beat,
I am Koyel Mandal — brand, not broken
Then glow never dim
Brand never fade.

Poet: I write from Uttardangapara, a small village in Dhupguri, Jalpaiguri. I am Koyel Mandal — 3rd year English Honours, author, dancer, dreamer. I have no room of my own, so my poems are my room. I am trying to become an example that a village girl with nothing can still build a name that never fades. Sometimes I don't know whom to ask why this happens when I am only trying to be good in my own life, not harming anyone. Still I write. Still I glow. Brand never broke.-- From Koyel Mandal
