Bengali Poetry (Translated)

For the Need to Stay Alive

You are my only magic.
Magic offers no shelter, yet I take refuge in you.

You are not here, yet you alone exist.
I cannot hear you, yet except for you, I hear nothing at all.
I cannot touch you, yet except for you, I touch nothing at all.
We do not speak, yet except with you, I speak with no one at all.

Because I never found you, this emptiness,
Because I never found you, this fullness.
Because I never found you, today I have everything.

To stay alive I must weep,
To stay alive I must think of you.
