मौसीक़ी-Mausiqui

सीना तान, शब्दों पर पूर्णविराम लगा
मैं उस की ओर चल दिया था।
पिछले कुछ दिनों की तरह आज भी
एक फरियाद लिए मैं बस चल दिया था।

यूँ तो राबता सुनना,
मेरे मूह से उसे भी पसंद नहीं था,
पर हैरानी इस बात की थी,
मऱहम का निवास भी उसी में था।

ख्यालों में अक्सर यह बात कईं खलती थी,
ऐसा भी किस्मत में खोट क्या है-
"कि यह मन खफा भी उनसे ही होता है
और मऱहम भी उनमें ही बसता है?"

डर का पहरा भी था
और मिलने की खुशी भी।
किसे मालूम था :
यह मऱहम खोजते हुए रुहानियत से मुलाकात होगी।

कितनी शिद्दतों के बाद यह रुहानियत
आज इनायत में तबदील हो गई!
मानों जैसे मेरी हस्ती ही
मुझसे रूबरू हो गई।

किसे मालूम था यह इनायत इतनी हसीन होगी?
कि मेरे सिफर के दरगह में भी
अब तेरी ही काया होगी।
यूँ ही किसी दिन,
इन शब्दों में نور बनकर तू बस जाएगी,
एक सुरख की चादर ओढ़ कर,
फिर से तू ख्यालों में छा जाएगी।

इन सब रंजिशों का हिसाब लेने,
मैं फिर उस की ओर चल दिया था,
जिसने कभी बात करना तो दूर,
मेरे होने पर भी सवाल मुझसे कर दिया था।

The Growing Bud

"She was like a mirror, too fragile to handle but still helps to reflect till her last shattered piece mixes with sand dust!" Yes, you read it right. She was too fragile to handle. But she was the one who was around me during all the tough times. Maybe we belong to a different community or culture but she understood me more than the one who classifies under the same banner as 'I'. She was someone special! No, not a lover she was. She was the one who always cared the most. A kind of true friend.The one you find in a lifetime or more. Maybe she was confused with someone else but a true 'girl   friend' she is. See, I left a space between that word and I really meant that. Space I left here, ain't a stereotype but a space that is to be filled when I gonna realise that finally, I could pay her debt. The debt for being so supportive and caring towards me.A kind of best protagonist type from a happy ending Bollywood movie where good triumphs over evil....

Skeptical Trajectory

Skeptical Trajectory! Often, I think of nth possibilities, Of twisting the "things", "paths" and "crossroads"! You see,  I'm trying!  .. I'm trying to fix:  The Skeptical Trajectory That has caged me  For time  I can't give an account of! .. Throughout my teenage, I have been a follower Definitely, not of the right deeds  But of simple "defined traits" pattern. .. "शायद, यह नज़रिया कभी मेरा था ही नहीं। और शायद कभी पूरी तरह बन भी नहीं पाया। यूं समझो की ऊंची दीवारों के इस 8X8 के कमरे में एक मैं हूं और कमरे की दीवार में जो सुराख है, वहां से आती रोशनी मेरा नज़रिया भी और दुनिया देखने का दायरा भी।" .. The Skeptical Trajectory, That I had chosen to follow! It's funny,  You know! It is!  .. Sometimes, at night; I sit on the floor,  Against the dark, Extra for a minute, A Minute turning into hours As I watch the night sky full of stars!  .. There are nights; a bit darker ones, Full of dangling eeriness!  That makes me...

"WordSmith"-Sure?

"What's the worst form of fear? To go through the same guilt again and again!" .. You know,  I have trust issues! Some literal ones Which are quite depressing At times.  .. When I hit the rock bottom I just re-live them again.  .. Now, think of you Making the same mistakes Which I shouldn't have  At first place! Isn't the moment of "self-doubt" for real? And it takes a heavy toll. .. Probably, that's my problem It definitely is. I tried to stop myself From going through it again and again. But seems like damage is done. .. A potential damage  That often restricts my spurted flow of words out of mouth. Though my rants are all set to be lashed at someone Full of despair and complaints! But now these thoughts seem to be hitting the thin walls of my veins Making their way to the hyperactive pumped brain And there I feel a hard pricking pain against the cranium! .. As i try to hold myself together I just pass out  And it seems as if  There is ...
