Unclogging my mind…
वक़्त की आँधी में कुछ नहीं टिकता
हमनें दरख्तों को उखड़ते देखा है
कौन ले जा सका है साथ जमीन
फिर भी भाइयों को लड़ते देखा है
क्या पकड़ सकता है मुट्ठी में अपनी
बच्चे को परछाई पकड़ते देखा है ?
उम्र भर अकड़ कर जिया था जो
उसे अपने बच्चों से डरते देखा है
वो बिन हमारे जीना सीख गया अमित
जिसे हमने खुद पे मरते देखा है

the
nail
polish
nightmares – when
she managed to choose
the color, she noticed the chip
A hundred reasons to live – but why?
When I have you and your eyes….
Two sips – intoxicating enough
For a lifetime to laugh and love
There are many who burn in desire
Your beauty sets the world on fire
Kohl laden eyes and open hair
How you slay me, my maiden fair
Let others know, you belong to me now …
Declare it fast – and you know how…
In collaboration with Reena Saxena for Reena’s Exploration Challenge # 100
I
was
telling
you deepest
secrets of my heart
while you were savoring the thrill
it’s cynicism at its finest
when you worry that
I’ll react to
venom
you
spew
I’m never alone
I’m always in a crowd of
your sweet memories
always a cautious one, she is
now treading lightly
all over
this soft
weak
heart
it
has
to be
without doubt
the first of its kind
this surge of love I feel for you
all
this
started
this one time
you looked at me with
what seemed to me as interest
