log wapas nahi aate

mausam laut kar aate hain,
par log wapas nahi aate,

yaad reh jati hai gujare huye lamhon ki,
par unke nishan mit nahi paate,

har kadam tanhai saath chalti hai,
phir chahe saaye saath chord jaate hain,

kareeb hote huye bhi sahil ke,
kasti sahil se mil nahi paati hai,

chahatein mit jaati hain shayed,
phir bhi dil mein basi ummid,

kabhi mit nahi pati,

mausam laut kar aate hain,
par log wapas nahi aate...!

if I tell you.. would you

if I tell you that I needed you,
would you laugh and make mecry?

if you ever saw my cuts,
would you leave and say goodbye?

if I tell you that you are my only love,
would you believe what I say?

if I tell you that you are my world,
would you turn and walk away?

if I tell you.. if I didn’t have you,
my life would come to an end.

can I really trust you,
to be like my best friend?

if I tell you that you hurt me,
would you even care?

if I tell you that it wasn’t feeling good,
can I count on you to be there?

if I tell you that I want to die,
because you have caused so much pain,
would you try to find out
what’s making me go insane?

if I tell you I am having problems,
and I needed you to stay,
to help me out,
would you try to find a way?

if I tell you I am deeply in love,
because I can’t live without your touch,
would you believe me when I say
I love you very much?

if I tell you that without your love,
my life would be off track,
if I tell you I love you,
can I trust you to love me back?

if I tell you..would you?

main sab kuch bhool jata hoon

jab bhi tum yaad aati ho,
main sab kuch bhool jata hoon...

tera hassta hua chehara,
teri jadu bhari baatein,
tere gillay, tere shikway,
teri masoom adaayein,

tere yadoon ke jhule mein,
main tanha jhool leta hoon,
jab bhi tum yaad aati ho,
main sab kuch bhool jata hoon...

akshar chooti si baatoun par
jab tum rooth jati thi,
mere manane se pehle,
khud hi maan jati thi,

jab bhi online hoti thi,
khushi se mail phool jata tha,
jab bhi tum yaad aati ho,
main sab kuch bhool jata hoon..

I am about to explode

we keep the pain inside us,

we feel happy too at times,
but happiness seems to be a bad teacher
whatever lesson is found there
we always easily forget..!

pain is magnificent when it comes

we really feel it down to the last nerve
to the last marrow of our bones
even rattling with the sound

of its groans and wailing's

and so here I am again
writing, learning, exposing
the poet of pain unswerving, 

and you may not like this..

I am this poet, 

this pain, this universe,
where you also revolve,
take orbit, where you are
a part of this poem, 

please move on, 

we may have this, 

needless collision..

let me have my way, 

I am about to explode

aisa zulm kisi aur pe na karna

kabhi akele me bethkar ye khayal aata hai,
ki har dum mujhe kyu wo hi yaad aati hai,

jisne zakhm itne diye,
jisne sabhi waade tord diye,
kya usse bhi kabhi tanhai mein koi gam satata hai,

umra bhar ka sath nibhane ka kehti thi jo,
wo chand lamho ka bhi sath na nibha paayi,

kya itna kamjor pyar hota hai?
kya kabhi use apne kiye per afsos hota hai?

unhone apna daaman phoolo se saja liya,.
humara nata kaato se jord diya,
aasma pe bihtakar pal bhar mein gira diya,
kya yahi usne mujhe meri wafao ka sila diya?

palat ke bhi na dekha ki hum mar gaye ya ji rahe,
kya yahi sab achhai ke naseeb mein aata hai?

uski yaad mein maine kitne aashu bahaye,
kya wo bhi kabhi hum pe zulm karke roti hai?

hai is duniya mein khuda kahi,
to kya yahi uske darbaar mein nyay hota hai,
ki har ek begunaah gamo mein rota hai aur,
kasuwar sone ki sej par sota hai??

hum to usme bhi khush hain,
na kabhi shikawa ki na shikayat ki,
har zakhm hass kar seh gaye,
apne aashuo ko khud hi pi gaye,

par aye-khuda itna reham zarur karna,
ye hasin zulm kisi aur pe na karna,
na karna… na karna...

love.. the source of strength, reality, unity, success, passion, sharing, security

being happy for the other person
when they are happy
being sad for the other person
when they are sad
being together in good times
and being together in bad times
love is the source of strength..!

being honest with yourself at all times
being honest with the other person at all times
telling, listening, respecting the truth
and never pretending
love is the source of reality..!

an understanding that is so complete that
you feel as if you are a part of the other person
accepting the other person just the way they are
and not trying to change them to be something else
love is the source of unity..!

the freedom to pursue your own desires
while sharing your experiences with the other person
the growth of one individual alongside of
and together with the growth of another individual
love is the source of success..!

the excitement of planning things together
the excitement of doing things together
love is the source of the future..!

the fury of the storm
the calm of the rainbow
love is the source of passion..!

giving and taking in a daily situation
being patient with each other’s needs and desires
love is the source of sharing..!

knowing that the other person
will always be with you regardless of what happens
missing the other person when they are away
but remaining near in heart at all times
love is the source of security...!!

these silent tears

this pain inside,
these silent tears,
I have kept them hidden
for many years...

this life I lead,
these things I do,
I have kept them hidden
and no one knew...

this person I am,
these parts of me,
I have kept them hidden
let no one see...

then you came along
so different from the rest,
no more did I hide
the worst or the best...

you excepted who I was
every last part of it,
and on top of that
my world you lit...

now I am changing
but still you are here,
and that you will leave
I do not have to fear...

I just want to thank you
for being my friend,
and changing my world
from beginning to end...

if you are reading this
you will know who you are
you are my best friend
and my shining star.
