Moon Shines Again!

 

  

                                                             Feeble Moon blazed                               

                                                             with a everlasting twinge                       

                                                             few unsaid words echoed!

                                                             I was left with a volatile dream

                                                             and a perennial longing

                                                             When I plunged into 

                                                             that fascinating night

                                                             But you cropped up

                                                             out of nowhere

                                                             with angelic charm

                                                             and elfin grace

                                                             and revived my 

                                                             glimmering hopes again..

 

ख़ामोश मेहरम..!!

कुछ बोलो मत
ख़ामोशी को यूँ रग़ों में
बेपरवाह बहने दो,
बहने दो कि जब तक
क़तरे-क़तरे का जुनून
हर एक नब्ज़ पर काबिज़ है
मैं लबों से फूटे कुछ हर्फ़ों के बजाय
तुम्हारे रूह के तिलिस्म को
तोड़ना चाहता हूँ
खोलना चाहता हूँ
उन तमाम गिरहों को
जो हमारे दर्मियान साँस लेते हैं
भीगना चाहता हूँ
उन बेमौसम बारिशों में
जो क़ुदरत को भी बेमानी कर दें
डूबना चाहता हूँ
उस रोशनी में
जो मेरी बेज़ुबान रातों का नूर है
फ़ासलों के एहसास से
इसे सुफ़ैद रहने दो
एक अल्फाज़ भी निकला
तो रिश्ता मैला हो जाएगा
कुछ बोलो मत
तुम लहर दर लहर
यूँ बढ़ती जाओ
मैं बूँद बूँद घुलकर
उन निशानों पर बहूँगा
जो कभी तुम्हारे थे
तुम कुछ बोलो मत
कुछ मत बोलो ।

Love Goes Wordless...

 

                                            The chaos 

                                            pales into the insignificance

                                            all worldly desires 

                                            seem to be mere a pittance

                                            A tender touch

                                            bestows a solace

                                            When love goes wordless..

                                            A disposition slithers

                                            to a heart

                                            Afew shadows tribulate

                                            and things get drifted apart
                                            A vague starts taking a shape
                                            When love goes wordless..

                                            Everything else plunges
                                            into the dearth
                                            Dreams start finding
                                            a reason of mirth
                                            Pangs and pleasures
                                            are there to embrace
                                            When love goes wordless..

                                            I get captivated
                                            with the gentle charm
                                            Feelings are dormant and unborn
                                            What I keep craving for
                                            nothing but that glistening face
                                            When love goes wordless...

A Tormentor...

 

                                           On the agonized path of

                                           my deserted life

                                           a lurching stride 

                                           took me to a poignancy

                                           where I coaxed to my pains

                                           but they rebuffed

                                           they wanted me to be

                                           with the same somber nights

                                           and a false aura of love,

                                           Where those pipe dreams

                                           were there to ravage

                                           my soul,

                                           with all the despondence

                                           I just kept on

                                           strolling,

                                           lightening bolts continued

                                           to flash across the sky,

                                           accidentally I witnessed

                                           a distraught cloud

                                           that was torn asunder,

                                           gulping sobs of grief

                                           I still went on 

                                          crooning

                                          with the same 

                                          nagging pain,

                                          and a tattered heart

                                          of mine.

a firefly...

                                 a firefly
                                 instills a life within a few wombs
                                 enlivening some souls
                                 dying in the dark
                                 patting a few sobbing hearts
                                 rejuvenating some weary strides
                                 a firefly keeps glittering on.

                                 vanishing some scars on psyche
                                 making forget all those pangs
                                 freeing from some fetters
                                 burning somewhere within
                                 illuminating the vibes yet
                                 a firefly keeps glittering on

                                 quenching the thirst of pursuing fellows
                                 stimulating a few latent desires
                                 measuring the limitless depth of gloom
                                 a firefly keeps glittering on

                                 embracing all the compassions
                                 imbibing all the sorrows
                                 sprouting some brand new hopes
                                 a firefly keeps glittering on.   
                               

a BRIDGELESS chasm..

                                      I still relive that moment

                                      You stepped in,

                                      We laughed

                                      We cried

                                      but together,

                                      We dreamed

                                      We realized

                                      but together,

                                      This proximity became farther

                                      for it was

                                      a bridgeless chasm..

                                      Those joined hands

                                      and nomad hearts
                                      Those oblivious steps
                                      and bubbling hopes
                                      just craved for eternity
                                      but they stumbled        

                                      and distances widened
                                      all the efforts for the oneness
                                      turned futile
                                      for it was
                                      a bridgeless chasm..
                                      I didn't know
                                      whys and hows
                                      I just went on and on
                                      but you left me
                                      unanswered
                                      with a twitching 'WHY'
                                      I embraced that behest too,
                                      doors were deadlocked
                                      and my knocks
                                      trailed off
                                      for it was
                                      a bridgeless chasm..
                                      Now I am blessed with
                                      pangs and pleasures both
                                      so what, if
                                      I chased a shadow
                                      this hide and seek
                                      infused a zeal into me
                                      to walk alone
                                      at times,
                                      Perhaps someone may
                                      bridge the gap
                                      but profoundly
                                      No one can,
                                      for it is
                                      a bridgeless chasm..

LoVe : an ANSWER with no question

                                     Something prods somewhere
                                     suddenly
                                     everything  starts rattling
                                     on the dreamy track
                                     but sounds like
                                     a percussionist's passion
                                     turning into a soulful melody
                                     We start getting captivated
                                     and steadily plunge into
                                     the enticing spell,
                                     we crave for it
                                      to last forever
                                      The mist blocks
                                       the ways
                                       and the nature
                                       starts chilling out all
                                       but it muffles all the way
                                       to make us feel
                                       that everlasting warmth
                                       The wind gets blowing on
                                        relentlessly
                                        and leaves every single leaf
                                        in a gruelling pain
                                        and they end up with
                                        nibbling to death
                                        for the reincarnation
                                        and it is like salvation
                                        The sun sets everything on fire
                                        we are left thirsty
                                        despite being amidst
                                        all the worldly possessions
                                        but it appeases all the desires
                                        It rains and
                                        wipes all dreams out
                                        thunders weaken all the hopes
                                        every drop jabs into the soul
                                        but it appears like
                                        a rainbow
                                        that makes us forget all
                                        and invites to embrace
                                        this divine happening
                                        When a nomad heart
                                        finds a place to live on
                                        when the moments deny
                                        to move on
                                        then we realize that
                                        this is how a soul completes
                                        another one
                                        and we are least bothered
                                        about all  known unknown
                                        All I can say
                                        this must be love
                                        because we still are not so sure
                                        about the question
                                        but what we own,
                                        is our answer
                                        So its LoVe
                                        an ANSWER with no question..
                                                           
                                    

another DAY...

                                                 Just now
                                                 I realized somewhere deep inside of me
                                                another DAY has gone
                                                without saying a word to me
                                                I keep on moping around
                                                why does it happen to me...
                                                but as always I never find an answer
                                                and then
                                                leaving me with all
                                                unanswered questions
                                                another DAY has gone...


                                                When you are here
                                                 I feel so content
                                                 even with your silence
                                                 they say its childish
                                                 but I have been finding the purest
                                                 reality in all these
                                                 definitely its going to hurt me
                                                 still I carry on
                                                 nothing really matters at all
                                                 and then
                                                 promising a false glimpse of yours
                                                 another DAY has gone...

                                             
                                                I know I am in dark all the way
                                                not any hope seems to get me out of this
                                                but your dreamy presence
                                                for an instance even
                                                lights up all my surroundings
                                                somewhere it means a lot to me
                                                when you say
                                                see you again
                                                I feel like having another life
                                                and then
                                                proving all my dreams,
                                                merely a dream
                                                another DAY has gone...


                                               You are not going to be mine
                                                this is what my destiny holds
                                                but an unknown feeling keeps
                                                all my hopes alive
                                                I never want to know
                                                that won't be fulfilled
                                                and then
                                                giving me a lovely reason to live again
                                                another DAY has gone...                            

every NIGHT when...

                                         Every night when
                                         I try to close my eyes
                                         someone takes me away
                                         in a wonderland kind of
                                         Where everyone has
                                         a different identity
                                         like I have never ever seen before
                                         People were together
                                         not for any worldly desire
                                         but they were completing each other
                                         the sun was shining there
                                         but with a strange grace
                                         winds were blowing there
                                         but with a loving rhythm
                                         birds were chirping there
                                         but with a amazing exuberance
                                         rivers were flowing there
                                         but with a hope to be lost
                                         in the ocean of love
                                         There were
                                         No grudges
                                         No grievances
                                         No jealousy 
                                         No cut throat competition
                                         All it was around
                                         was the LOVE
                                         the sacred LOVE
                                         the unconditional LOVE
                                         without any manipulated definitions
                                         without any self made limitations
                                         Every night
                                         when I try to close my eyes
                                         It does happen to me
                                         and every night
                                         I wish that
                                         the night never comes to an end
                                         because beyond this dream world
                                         everything is a delusion for me
                                         No one has even a moment
                                         to share it with me
                                         It saddens me all the time
                                         But sun has to arise
                                         I have to awake
                                         a brand new morning awaits for me
                                         with some promising hopes
                                         and momentary pleasures
                                         don't know why
                                         but I am indifferent to all
                                         and I know it has to go on
                                         perhaps its called reality
                                         but I love that tiny space of mine
                                         with no boundaries
                                         where someone awaits for me
                                         Every night when
                                         try to close my eyes..!!!
                                         Every night when...

a RAY OF HOPE..!!!

                                Winds have changed the directions now,
                                even sunshine gives the pain,
                                the things I used to be thoughtful with
                                now threatens me again and again..
                                still if I am alive
                                just because of a ray of hope;

                                I found it a strange place,
                                where I somehow stepped in with grace,
                                paths are innumerable ,
                                but I am lost with just no trace,
                                still if I am standing here
                                just because of a ray of hope;

                                Now even shadow is defying me
                                without any reason,
                                it all seems to me nothing more than
                                a delusion,
                                still if could manage to move on
                                just because of  a ray of hope;

                                Now I am asked to wait,
                                but it is not all about my fate,
                                I just got to step out of this
                                unknown territory's gate,
                                and I will prove myself
                                someday with the same RAY OF HOPE..
