Frozen Me

I look back and I look ahead.
I will always be where I have been.

The infinitesimal moments
The cheer and the laughter
The rains and walks and holding hands
The You in me and the Me not in you

The dust and the days and the dark
The distance between your city and me
The crowds separating us and joining us
The your heart and your smile

The unsaid words and heard silence
The your joy and your sorrow
The things you do not want to own
The others you have rejected.

I empty my eyes forever
The way you emptied your heart..
I take with me what you do not want
And that is pretty much all of it.

Us

Strawberry Fields Forever

About Me

You use words when I least expect
And then you go on and on about me, I forget.
And the rest of the day or the night, I fret
Trying to remember what you said.

Din

Kahaan hein sooraj ki thapthi dhoop..?
Kahaan parchaayiyon ki thanhaayi...?

Tum nahin tho
Din bhi mere andhere mein hein.
Tum nahin tho.

The Ironies

The Distance Between Us.

Doori

Mujh thak pahunchne ka
Tumhaara safar lambaa hein.

Raah mein bheed hein, shor hein,
Hein tumhe chaahnewaale
Aur tumhe doondnewaale.
Aur haan, tumhe meri thalaash bhi nahi hein.
