Anamika

Her name matches with a name of a tree "Kamranga"
I've never seen the tree
I've never found a friend of Botany
Delving into it.
It might be an average
Too average to be counted in the dashing world.

She never stepped in a school
She never knew to read
Time yanked her cradle
She never saw the aubade.

She stepped out, She saw the dark
She chucked the relations
She could not leaf the politics through
"Padma" was dressed in bloods.

She glided by the roads, borders
Casted her thumb in thousands books
She first saw the light when in "Sutanuti"
People were fighting for the subsistence.

Nobody fussed over her tears while
She hustled to get in the queue to dine
Nobody eyed if she could snatch
ANAMIKA - You learn to fight.
