I type these letters,
I deleted many before these,
Just as time weathers,
Why not it takes away memories,
I dance to my own tune,
Write my own lyrics in the air,
I just stare at the moon,
Even when the sky ain’t clear,
Beats pound in my brain,
A background score of sorts,
Just like life’s moving in a fast lane,
In the picture all light distorts,
There is no secret,
Still not all is known,
There is nothing to fret,
Still plenty to mourn,
There is nothing I can’t do,
Still there is nothing that can be done,
It’s like there is nothing I knew,
Still there is nothing that seem to be known,
There is no path I won’t take,
Yet there is no way to go on,
There is nothing but me at stake,
Asking life to just come on,
Free me of my own shackles,
Let me take the leap,
Let me see what actually matters,
Let me search down and deep,
Let me tread an unknown road,
Let me do the unusual,
Let me be the ugly toad,
Let me be a bit frugal,
With letting go of what I desire,
With not knowing what to do,
With being a reason for ire,
With being able to be true…

Have you ever wondered?
Have you ever wondered?
I think you might have,
Life would have given you a chance to feel,
When you just crave for someone,
But time doesn’t heal,
And you wait and everything is undone,
Have you ever wondered?
I think you might have,
How you feel each moment is for someone else,
And you love that feeling too,
But with time as the feeling dwells,
You feel, the only one who feels that way is you,
Have you ever wondered?
I think you might have,
How you want to talk all the time,
To no one but just one person alone,
Coz that’s the only time life feels benign,
As if on you the sun shone,
Have you ever wondered?
I think you might have,
How you never want to leave the room,
So that you don’t miss a sight,
Of that one person whom you compare to the moon,
Who you forgive after every fight,
Have you ever wondered?
I think you might have,
How bad you want to stay in love,
No matter how hard it hurts,
How bad you want to say it’s your love,
No matter how hard you heart spurts,
Have you ever wondered?
I think you might have,
How you manage to just lie down,
Thinking of no one but that one,
How the world around you gives a frown,
But you don’t care what happens under the sun,
Have you ever wondered?
I think you might have,
How you feel things you never thought you could,
How you could feel the pain and still smile,
How you did the things you thought you never would,
How you made a single thought last more than just a while,
Have you ever wondered?
I think you might have,
Why you never wondered so much about love before,
Before the time you saw that one face,
And all you wanted to do was see it more,
And that became your life’s saving grace,
Have you ever wondered?
I think you might have,
Coz I wonder it too,
And will wonder till the end of time,
Coz these wonders are just a few,
And I want to relish this one till the end of time…

कल रात कोई चुपके से मेरे ख्वाब चुरा गया...
कल रात कोई चुपके से मेरे ख्वाब चुरा गया,
नींद थी गहरी मेरी,
कोई आ के जगा गया,
सोचा था सहला जाएगा वो,
अपने नर्म हाथों से,
पता नहीं था यूँ धोका दे जाएगा,
अपनी प्यारी बातों से,
सहमा सहमा, कुछ घबराया सा,
जाग रहा हूँ अकेला अब मैं,
आँखों को मसलता, ढूँढता एक साया सा,
भटक रहा हूँ अब मैं,
मैं जिस रहा पे चलना भूल गया था,
उस राह पे कोई ले आया मुझे,
जब चलना फिर से सीख रहा था,
कोई तन्हा छोड़ गया मुझे,
सवालों से घिरा,
सवाल हर पल खुद से करता हूँ मैं,
छुपाये अपना चेहरा,
आईनों से बचता हूँ मैं,
के दिल तो टुटा ही हुआ था मेरा,
उसे चकना चूर करने की ज़हमत क्यों की,
क्या जुर्म था वो मेरा,
जिसे बताने की भी ज़रूरत न समझी,
क्यों ख्वाब मेरे हमेशा अधूरे रह जाते है,
क्यों प्यार के मंज़र बस मंज़र बन के रह जाते है,
क्यों हकीकत से हम अनजान रह जाते है,
क्यों उम्मीद के सहारे भवंदर में फस जाते है,
नकार तो सकता हूँ मैं इस दर्द को,
कोई और राह भी तो नहीं है,
बस पूछता हूँ ये खुद को,
के ज़िन्दगी अब भी इम्तेहान ही क्यों ले रही है...

You are the one I waited for...
You are the one I waited for,
Days and night, all the while,
You are the one I always searched for,
Pacing through life’s each mile,
You are the tune that I hum all the time,
The song that I never wrote,
It doesn’t matter if it doesn’t rhyme,
Cause there’s you in every note,
You are my confession,
One I could never make,
You are the pristine passion,
One that I would never fake,
You are the words I listen now,
Everything else is nothing,
To you, my wait took a bow,
All this while I had been just waiting,
You are the script,
In which I play a part,
Nothing will now go adrift,
I won’t let this fall apart,
You are the belief I was looking for,
With my arms wide open,
Waiting for the clouds to pour,
To save me from the glazing sun,
You are the tear in my eye,
That I shed only in times of joy,
You are my goodbye,
To the times, that were nothing but wry,
You are my flight,
Into the world of my own,
Where I see no plight,
Not a moment to mourn,
You are the one I waited for,
Lead me wherever you wish to,
Coz you are the one I waited for,
And I want nothing more but you…

It's funny...
It’s funny,
How I wait for those little things,
It’s funny,
Like I am being chased by a cupid with wings,
It’s funny,
How many times I say I miss you,
It’ funny,
How I keep calling to tell you,
It’s funny,
How I feel when you don’t say you miss me,
It’s funny,
No matter how many times you already said it to me,
It’s funny,
How I keep looking at my inbox for a mail,
It’s funny,
How your sad face turns me pale,
It’s funny,
How I ask you each time how you are,
It’s funny,
How you remind me each time we’r too far,
It’s funny,
How I keep looking at your pics,
It’s funny,
How I remember all those clicks,
It’s funny,
How I think of all those times we spent together,
It’s funny,
How I feel the distance is for the better,
It’s funny,
How I keep coming back to you,
It’s funny,
How you disappear like the morning dew,
It’s funny,
How many times I tell how much I love you,
It’s funny,
Coz I have never said so many times “I love you”

Aur ye aaj bhi mohbbat karti hai mujhse…
Apni sanson ki awaaz me sun sakta hun,
Dil jab dhadakta hai to uski halchal main sun sakta hun,
Apne sinne ko us pal main hilta dekh sakta hun,
Us pal ko main har tarah mehsoos kar sakta hun,
Aur usi pal ko nahi,
Zindagi ki har chotti badi baat,
Banti bigadti kahi,
Kuch uljhi suljhi chotti badi baat,
Jaise chhat pe ghumta pankhe ki awaaz,
Khidki khatkhtati hui,
Hawa me terti dhul ke andaaz,
Surya ki kirne laplapati hui,
Wo sadak pe sabziyaan bechta koi,
Log anganit takrate sambhalte,
Kisi se kuch kehta puchta koi,
Sab apni raah pe phir chal dete,
Kuch rukta nahi,
Waqt tertaa jaata hai,
Log puchte nahi,
Bas mera dil kehta jaata hai,
Ke main bhi hun,
Is bhidd me khada kahin,
Ke main bhi hun,
Tum mujhe dekhte kyu nahi,
Nazarandaaz kar rahe ho kyu mujhe,
Kyu mera kandhaa dabate chale,
Kyu nahi dekh paate tum mujhe,
Kyu ho sab ke sab manchale,
Ke main sab paa ke bhi,
Kyu andhura mehsoos karta hun,
Ke main muskura ke bhi,
Gam hi mehsoos karta hun,
Kyu sab ke saath ho ke bhi,
Har lamha khud ko tanha samjhta hun,
Kyu itni baar khud ko aazma ke bhi,
Nakamyaab khud ko samjhta hun,
Kyu itne jawaab sab ko de ke bhi,
Khud hi se sawaal karta hun,
Har ladai se door bhaag ke bhi,
Khud hi se main ladta hun,
Kyu apno se,
Aaj bhi kuch nahi keh sakta hun,
Kyu ajnabiyon se,
Zindagi baant sakta hun,
Kya main aaj bhi tanha hun,
Ya bas ye mohbbat hai meri tanhai se,
Ke aaj bhi main ise chodne se darta hun,
Aur ye aaj bhi mohbbat karti hai mujhse…

Baandhe rakhi thi umeedon ki ek dori...
Baandhe rakhi thi umeedon ki ek dori,
Nazuk the haath tab se,
Maalum na tha har khwaish ho jaayegi chori,
Khwab bhi lagenge laapata se,
Chahtein garm loo ki tarah ban jayengi,
Is baat ka hume ilm na tha,
Koshishen sirf koshishen reh jayengi,
Zindagi ne diya kabhi ye ishara na tha,
Har aandhi se lad jaane ke irade rakhe the,
Hawaein bhi muhn mod jaayengi, ye socha na tha,
Himmaton ke pul har nadi pe bana rakhe the,
Baraf ki tarah pigal jaayenge, ye socha na tha,
Lapata kuch chehre zehan me,
Kuch awaazen goonja karti hai,
Jaane hun kya main apne hoshon hawas me,
Meri rooh mujhse khud hi pucha karti hai,
Gumraah main nahi,
Har raah hi ho gayi hai,
Gumshuda main nahi,
Har pehchaan ho gayi hai,
Aaj bhi awaaz deta hun,
Meri shaksiyat ke sanatte me vo goonjti hai,
Aaj bhi kuch likh deta hun,
Bina panno ke wo bhi apna arth kho deti hai,
Ab haath mulayam to nahi,
Lankirein bhi kuch dhundli ho chuki hai,
Aankhon me wo chamak bhi nahi,
Ke aashayein ojhal jo ho chuki hai,
Har ghoont me gala sookh jaata hai,
Jaise pyaas andar abhi aur bhi bhari hai,
Har nazar me kuch dhundla nazar aata hai,
Jaise dekhno ko duniya aur bhi badi hai,
Batorta hun apne khoye iradon ko,
Ke guzaarni zindagi abhi kuch aur bhi hai,
Ek mauka aur deta hun apni talaashon ko,
Ke dhundni manzilein abhi kuch aur bhi hai…
