Deserted and dark
I stand testimony- a sidewalk,
To the blood splattered,
dreams shattered,
the freedom lost..
Outstretched hand,
bloodstained...
she stood alone
guarding her dead life
That lay sprawled
all over me
Rooted in me
Is this tiny life-
All green and strong.
Heroes never falter,
Death remains defeated...
on a stony footpath in Dhaka.
You are planted dear blogger
And grow we all shall..
Fighting back
Writing with might
For you and her.
Written for the bravest woman - Rafida Ahmed Bonna, wife of slain blogger Avijit Roy.
