कुछ आज़ादी अब भी बाकी है

यह आज़ादी बड़ी महंगी पड़ी है,सही मायनों में ये लड़ाई अब भी जारी है। किसी का आँगन छूटा,कहीं छूटा माँ का आँचल। किसी का दामन छूटा,कहीं टूटा सपनों का बंधन। परछाई अब अधेरों से निकल रही है,सही मायनों में ये लड़ाई अब भी जारी है। किसी का हाथ थाम लूँ गर्व से फेरे,कोई प्यार से…

As the year is coming to an end

Let’s spill some beans,let’s make ruffling feathers a trend.Let’s untie some knots,as the year is coming to an end. I survived another year,and the generation took an accend.Let’s halt and reflect,as the year is coming to an end.

तेरा बरामदा

आज भी जब उस राह गुज़रता हूँ,नज़रें एक टक उस बरामदे पर चली जाती हैं. खुद को झूठ ना बोल पाऊंगा,हाँ, देखते ही यादेँ ताज़ा हो जाती हैं. तू नहीं, पर तेरा एहसास आज भी है वहां,इक भ्रम सी परछाई आज भी दिख जाती है. उस कमरे की तस्वीर आज भी ज़हन में हैं छपी,वह…

Tum sab jaanti ho

Tum to sab jaanti thi,poocho apne dil se. Itne saal jise god mein khilaya,sine se laga ke duniya se bachaya. Uski har dhadkan se waqif thi,maathe ki chunwat ko bhi pehchnati thi. Jiski hansi mein tumhari khushi,Aur chot lagne par tum bhi roti thi. Tumhari lali lipstick lagakar bohot baar saja tha,Apni chunar orhakar jise…

Pulbangash

Pul Bangash, naam to suna hi hoga?Sach bataun, to chaar saal pehele tak maine nahi suna.Park hotel ke us pool ke takraw ke baad,yeah naam saamne aaya.Pehele to main bohot hansa,naam ajeeb jo tha.Malun na tha Dilli mein aisa bhi koi metro station hain,par jo hain uska kya hi kar sakte hain.Purani Dilli ki tang…

Bheega Samandar

Barkha ki jhankar aaj goonj rahi hain aangan mein,Ab tum kya bhigaoge samandar ko.

The Conversation at the Telephone

You may think, that I’m referring to a telephonic conversation here; however, this was a conversation that happened in a bar between two unknown people. There’s a popular saying, ‘You meet the most unexpected person at the most unexpected time and place’. Something similar happened here. It was the year 2017 when I was in…

Step of Memories

Three years, as time flew by; a lot reminded stagnant,The grief persist and so did the memories. As I climbed those stairs, years after we bid goodbye,Each step recalled a moment and so did the feet became, heavy. As I rang the bell, I wish it was you;Then was greeted with the same warmth as…

2021: The Year it was

Here I am, relishing the last trip of the year with my man and a friend who is really close to my heart. There are a few unknown people who may become friends tomorrow. My heart goes out to all who are missing here. Sipping onto a hot Ginger Lemon Honey, with the chill running…
