ONE SIDED LOVE: Gaze In Blind Eyes

Original Bengali Poetry by Priiyo
Classical birahini register

Have you ever loved someone who goes completely
blind when your name comes up?

POEM:
"ছাতির উপর এই মহাতাপ আমার, চামড়া পোড়ার গন্ধ এড়াক সে-
যত্ন করে তাঁকেই লক্ষ্য করে, দৃষ্টি রাখি অন্ধ দু'চোখে।"

TRANSLATION:
"This great heat is on my chest, let them avoid
the smell of burning skin —
carefully keeping them in focus,
I place my gaze inside their blind eyes."

মহাতাপ — great heat, cosmic-scale anguish. Not ordinary
warmth but the kind that scorches.

"চামড়া পোড়ার গন্ধ এড়াক সে" — let them avoid
the smell of burning skin. The speaker accepts the burning.
What needs concealing is only its evidence.
The devotional move: suffer silently so the beloved
is not troubled.

"দৃষ্টি রাখি অন্ধ দু'চোখে" — I place my gaze in
their blind eyes. The beloved who refuses to see becomes
the vessel for the speaker's watching. The gaze lives
inside the blindness. The most original sight-inversion
in the One Sided Love series.

NOTE ON REGISTER:
"চামড়া পোড়া" (burning skin) is a classical Bengali
birahini (বিরহিণী) poetic image for the intensity of
longing — not literal, but the tradition's standard
hyperbole for the heat of unrequited love.
