Careless words

There is only something that I hate so much

Careless words

Words that dont mean anything

Words that are just lying in the air

That you just catch and throw

No

Words that doesnt connect

Words that doesnt come from inside

Your mind, your soul

Words that have no purpose

Words that are mere an excuse to remove silence

No

Words that are poison

For your mind

For your emotions

For your sanity

Words that stab you

Right where it can kill

Because you didn't notice what you are saying

Because you didnt find it important 

Because they were just careless words for you 

दिल का हाल

कभी जलता हूँ धुऐं सा, कभी लहरों सा बहता हूँ,

जो तू न हो पास मेरे, तेरी यादों में खोया रहता हूँ,

तुझे तो ख़ामोशी के सिवा कुछ न दे पाया मैं,

आज ये बूंदें पिरो, दिल का हाल मैं कहता हूँ। 

Kabhi jaltaa hu dhuyein sa, to kabhi lahro sa bahtaa hu,

Jo tu na ho paas mere, teri yaadon me khoya rahtaa hu,

Tujhe to khamoshi ke siwa, kuch na de paya main,

Aaj ye boondein piro, dil ka haal main kahtaa hu.

शांति

बहुत शांति है यहाँ 
कोई सैलाब नहीं इस समंदर में 
धड़कनें भी थोड़ी धीमी हैं 
तेरे और मेरे दिलों की 
बेचैनी नहीं है कोई 
न कोई फाँसले दरमियाँ हैं 
किसी बात का डर भी नहीं 
न किसी रफ़्तार की न किसी मंज़िल की तलाश है 
बहुत शांति है यहाँ 
एक तू है, एक मैं हूँ 
और ये गहरा समंदर है 
लहरें हैं कुछ पर बेताब नहीं 
आसमाँ भी उदास नहीं कि आफ़ताब नहीं 

Walk alone

Walk alone. Listen. Breathe. 
Inhale. Exhale. Breathe. 

Nature will calm your mind. 
It will relax your body. 
It will replenish your soul.

If you need a mind detox, 
Just look beyond that life of concrete. 
A beautiful sky will show up,
In all its beauty and wonderfulness. 
The hues of pink and yellow and orange and blues, 
And ever so mesmerizing silhouettes of dry branches 
Perching on the trees only to appear standing 
In praise and awe of the spectacular symphony the sky is playing. 

Look beyond the shackles of social networking and internet media. 
Don't give in to the desire of texting or browsing Facebook 
When you can enjoy a swing 
Silently observing its delicate motions. 

Feel the breeze. 
If you try, you can listen to a silent wind too. 
If you try, cold winters wont feel harsh to you. 
You may not find a lot of birds chirping now, 
But if you can still see the twinkling of the stars, 
Feel glad that you are still alive. 

If you look closely, you will see a life too, 
Sprouting out from a shell, 
Because the world isn't dead yet. 
If you look closely, you may have a glimpse of yourself too, 
Because you aren't dead yet either.

Presence

When you will be busy
With your work everyday
Keeping up the schedule
And staring at your laptop

Forgetting about the flower
Blossoming around the corner of  your table
And steaming cup of coffee
Getting cold like a fading memory

Those such times
Remember I will be there
Sitting silently near you
Listening to your presence

The Silent Stare

It was so loud out in the party, with all that music, and glittering lights, and people. But deep down I could feel a deafening silence. And the silent stare from his eyes were penetrating even deeper inside me.

He was still looking at me. Like he wanted to say something. Were those questions for me? Or the answers which he always wished he could give to me? Or did he want me to read something up there by myself?

I tried to look and it seemed like a labyrinth. Why didn't he just simply come and talk to me? May be the words could have helped better. Or was it I myself who didn't want to talk? It was like two magnets, sometimes with opposite poles, but sometimes with similar.

Everything was hazy, and blurred. The only thing that was still and riveted was the stare from his eyes, with zillions of things to talk about.

And when I see up now, I find those eyes still looking at me.. silently!

Shhhh...!!!

Shhhh....

Yahaan shor na kar,

Sun is sannaate ko,

Bahut kuch kahna chahta hai yeh,

Dekh is andhere ko,

Band aankho se,

Apni hi parchhaai dikhana chahta hai yeh.

Kitna kuch sunane ko,

Khaamoshiyo ki cheekh,

Kitna kuch dikhane ko,

Dil me dard, aansuon me gum,

Pal-pal tadapti saanse,

Chahti hain zindagi ki kaid se aazaadi,

Par ye pyasi nigaahe,

Aaz bhi ummeed karti hain sookhe huye sagar se,

Shayad koi naya aakaash,

Andhere ko cheer kar,

Kuch boond amrit, sagar ko dene wala ho,

Shayad ek toofaan, ek bijli,

Saare sannaate aur andhere ko,

Khatm kar dene wale ho,

Shayad mil rahi ho kahin se,

Kuch udhaar ki saanse,

Shayad ek nayaa sooraj,

Kahin janm lene wala ho.

Kya pata, kal kya ho?

Zindagi ret ki tarah fisal rahi hai,

Par hum kar sakte hain to kya?

Sirf ek ummeed,

Shayad zindagi samay ke sath tham jaye,

Udhaar ki saanse, maut ke khauf ko mitaa jaayen,

Ya phir...

Ek aur koshish,

Ki yahaan koi shor na ho,

Kyunki... sannaata,

Bahut kuch kahna chahta hai yeh....
