The Triumph of Penumbra

Md  Saber -E- Montaha
In the triumphant penumbra, silence weaves its shroud,
A tale unfolds, of death's relentless crowd.
Beneath the penumbra, the hope retreats,
Decay and destruction, two relentless beats.
Joy, a distant memory in this unsettlingspace,
Darkness wraps the world in its cold embrace.
A discord of nothingness and a silent wail,
Echo through the void, a desolate trail.

The dilemma of existence and a haunting refrain,
Harrow thedreaded chambers of the soul's plain.
A dance with shadows, an attempt in vain,
Life succumbs to that never-endingreign.

Beneath the penumbra, where illusions fade,
The canvas of time by entropy is swayed.
A cosmic graveyard, where stars decay,
And dreams dissolve in the night's dismay.

Nothingness, a voidthat devours all,
In its perpetual existence, the shadows sprawl.
The echo of laughter, a fleeting memory,
Absorbed in the depths of eternal misery.

In the penumbra's grasp, hungry demons dwell,
A symphony of despair, a woefulspell.
A journey through darkness, a lone endeavor,
The soul grapples with its tattered tether.

Decay's cruel fingers trace every line,
A tapestry of time, where destinies intertwine.
The dance of destruction, a macabre waltz,
In the penumbra's grip, the fate exalts.

So let the verses weep, in somber rant,
For in this darkness, life's eulogy we chant.
A requiem for existence, a dirge for the soul,
The penumbra triumphs and takes its toll.
The poet is an Assistant Professor in the Department of English at Northern University Bangladesh
