You know you..

Love is blind they say
Yeah it is! 
I realise..


They say they love you
They know you
The way you are


You know who you are
You know why they shouldn't
You know why they can't


They think they are right
Loving you is their right
They aren't getting things wrong but right


You know what you are
Replaceable, not completely
You know though, it ain't a loss to any


They think it's true
You questioning them
Is insult, hurting , gifting them restless nights


But how do you make them understand?
You know you
Better than any..

Bit less

My words aren't me
No where close
What I feel
Doesn't equate what is the real me


I write to please myself
No other
Thoughts without action
Is a boat which is at a harbour


I'm good
A bit less a bit more
But my writings
Aren't the whole story..

भेंट

खुदा के
और खुद के
नज़रों से गिर जाएंगे

जो भूल से भी
खुद के घाव
किसी और को भेंट कर जाएंगे..

कैद


मेरे शब्द ही मुझे कैद कर जायेंगे
ऐसा कभी सोचा ना था

खुली उड़ान देते थे जो
कभी मेरे पंख भी कट्वायेंगे

निकले थे किसिका गम् बांटने
और खुद की झोली भर आए

मेरी खामोशियो और तन्हाइयो का
कतल कर गई ये लफ्जों की सौगातें

DECENTER

I'm not the center of this world
Nor yours
Neither I want to be
Leave me alone the way I am
Impressing people was never my cup of tea
I do gel in, mix up
That's rare, like seeing a meteor shower
I matter I know
In my own small ways
But I don't want any privileges
Any special feelings
Let me be the way I am
In my solitude, 
Exchanging smiles with the handful
And for the rest
You are free to forget me at the earliest
Many here around like me..
I'm just another soul on this blue planet...

Keep Mum

Move in
Back up
Stay aside
Keep mum

Speak out, now stop
Keep it measured
How much you open up

Cause it's all analysed
What and when to say
When and where to stop

Care and share
Isn't always fare
Accomplice a day
Stranger the day next

Confused , puzzled
You can't actually guage

So..
Move in, back up
Stay aside
Keep mum

Hang on!

You have to reach out Yeah, you have to Sometimes to help Sometimes to seek The simplest of the things The not so obvious signs That subtle ...
