“Combustion (Sonnet 1035) You only see the light of the sun, But not the combustion agony. You only see the act of creation, But not the pain of creativity. You only see the light of genius, But not the price of genius. You only see the flight of triumph, But not the tragedies one has to cross. You are replenished by the monsoon rain, You got no clue ‘bout the burden of the cloud. You only see the glamor of my victory, Not the heartbreaks I don't scream out loud. Everybody wants to shine, that is no glory. Only those with character can bear combustion agony.” — Abhijit Naskar
Combustion (Sonnet 1035)
You only see the light of the sun,
But not the combustion agony.
You only see the act of creation,
But not the pain of creativity.
You only see the light of genius,
But not the price of genius.
You only see the flight of triumph,
But not the tragedies one has to cross.
You are replenished by the monsoon rain,
You got no clue ‘bout the burden of the cloud.
You only see the glamor of my victory,
Not the heartbreaks I don't scream out loud.
Everybody wants to shine, that is no glory.
Only those with character can bear combustion agony.
