The Tea matters
More than the Cup.

जिसने कहा कि मेरे पास कुछ नहीं हैं।
उसके पास हि  सबसे ज़्यादा होता है।

Hum Sab Bhi Tau Khatil hi hai.

Koi Kissi Ki Khushi Ka Khatal Karta Hai.
Tau Koi Apni.  

Hum Sab Bhi Tau Khatil Hi Hai …

Old Memories of that Special Day …
That Old City Venue ..
Relatives and Friends.  
That Peace and Calm
Changing our Lives for Ever …
Nervous and Excited
As we started our New Journey.  

Twenty One Years of Love and Understanding.
Twenty One Years of Low and High.

Seems like Yesterday.

Wanted to do Everything …..
Ended up doing Nothing…..

Many Paths…
Same Destination…
Quickly we all move.  
And always  fight
In Order to prove
That we are Right.

I always wanted that Chair.
Got the Table Instead.

Never Ending Heavy Storm.
Hope it would End One Day…
Remained where I was …
Others Ran Away.
The Storm Remained.
They Survived.
I died.

Walking on the Foot Path....
A Speeding Ambulance.
Crashes into me like never before.
Leaves me dead to the core.
Waiting for another Ambulance.

Some Going Up
Some Going  Down
Some Stop
Some Relax
Some Take a  Break
Some Stay
Some Run
And Some will make you fall.

Your presence
kills my Presence

Stop !
Apple Trees can’t be found in Desserts.

Decades have passed.
Waited and Waited.
Always took the first Step.
So Blind and Dumb.
Some times alone.
Some times together.  
At times cried
At times happy.

Sometimes its the place
Sometimes its the Sequence
Sometimes its the Speed
Sometimes its the Randomness
Sometimes nothing
Sometimes Everything.

This one is broken ..

When you wanna hear them
They talk Everyday.
When you wanna tell them
They Simply Walk Away

No matter what happens
Will never ever Share
My Thoughts
My Feelings
My Actions.

Roshni mai Jaanai  Sai
Roshan Nahi Hau Jaata Hai.

Isnaai  Khuch  Post Dala
Usnai Bina Sauchai Like Kiya
Dono Khush Hau Gayai.
Yeh Silsala Hauta Hi Raha.

Share Aur Like Kai Daldalai Mai
Sab Hi Trap Hauta Hi Gayi
Kabhie Usnai Share Kiya
Tau Kabhi Isnaai Like Kiya.

Kya Sahi Kya Galaat
Kya Sachaai Kya Jhootaa
Bas Sab  Forward Aur Like
Mai Lag Chukai Hai.


Mai Sahi Hu
Tu Galaat Hai
Mai Sachaa Hu
Tu Jhoota Hai

Bina Research kai
Khuch Tau Aisai Bhi Post Kar Laitai Hai
Validation ki Pyasaa Hai Khuch Log
Jau Khush Hau Jaatai Hai Ek Like Sai
Aur Apni Woh Jung Jeet Jatai Hai.

Yeh Daldalaai Sai Kab Nikaal Paiyaa Gaya
Digital Daldalaa Kab
Khataam Hau Jayainga

Some are still in their Fortress
Built by Lies and Deceit.
Strengthened by Greed and Vice.
Protected by their Wealth and Fear.

The Storm is yet to come
which will break every part
One by One.

When they both Exist
Both Burn Inside Endlessly

One takes one Path
While the Other takes another.

They see the Light from A Far
Yet not acknowledge the Path

Mock those who try to show them
Preach Nonsense to everyone else.

Close are their Minds so Tight
No Reason will even make it a bit loose.

No matter what happens
Burn they will in their
Ego and Stubbornness
Unaware for Eternity.

And then they are times
Maybe Seconds , Minutes or Hours.
Days , Weeks or Years.
You are all alone.
No one to Speak
No one to Listen
Many come and go
Some Stay a while
Some Stay a bit longer
And then go
Expectations may never be fulfilled
But there is still hope
That someone may stay for long.

Dheemai Dheemai Kadam Badatai Thi
Kabhie Darr Lagta Tha
Kabhie Thaak Jaatai Thai.  

Dheemi Dheemi Manzil Paas Aaati Thi
Kabhie Saaf Dekhti Thi
Kabhie Bahut Duur Lagti Thi.

Aab Waqt Aaa Gaya Hai Yaarau
Jo kabhi sapna lagta tha
Usey hakeekat banane ki

Blinded and Intoxicated
Deaf and Ignorant
Board that Luxurious Train
Unaware of the Masses Pain
Stopped by the Few who Dare
Still they hardly Care.
Their Journey Begins
With No Destination No End
Stuck now they are in that Train
Screaming loudly for Help
Dissolving in the Ambience

Tanhayee Ki Khamooshi
Shor Machaa Daitai Hai.
Aksar Hammai Phir Sai
Aur Tanha Kar Daitai Hai.

Heaven I leave
Down I come
Connect with you
Accept or Reject
I need you
And You need me too

They keep coming back to me
Just like the Seasons

Aaag Aaag Hauti Hai.
Jab Jalti Hai Jalti Rehti Hai.
Jab Bhujti Hai Tau Bhuj Jaati Hai.  
Aaag Aaag Hauti Hai.

What a fool I was
Searching for Water
In the Hot Hot Desert
Whereas had all along
A Magical Water Bottle
With Unlimited Supply

Sand Castles Built by
Blood , Tears and Sweat
cannot be broken easily.

Many have tried in the Past.
Many will in the Future.
The Castle may have cracks
Intact it will Remain.

For those who attempt
to destroy my Castle.
Seek some other Castles
built by treachery, cheating and fraud.

Attempt by you  
Will be futile for sure.

Sand Castles Built by
Blood , Tears and Sweat
cannot be broken easily.

I Believe
   Because
I want to Believe

Stuck  in this Never Ending Traffic
Seconds becomes Minutes.
Minutes becomes Hours.
Horns being blown randomly
Pollution Everywhere.

Under the Big Apple Tree
They have the Apple
Yet Praise the Mango

Comfortable
Illuminated
Stress Free
Silent
Dead End.

Walking on the Endless Road
Then I wished I had a bicycle.
So Worked Hard Day and Night
Finally  got the best one to Ride.
Then I wished for a Bike.
So Worked Hard Day and Night
Finally got the best one to Ride.
Then I wished for a Car.
So Worked Hard Day and Night
Finally got that hatchback one to Ride.
Now I wish to walk back.
Neither do I have the time or Energy
To walk Back Again.

Infinite Constraints.
Finite Time.  
Random Circumstances.
Deceiving Illusions.
Unreliable Solutions.
Unsolvable Problems.
Escape Inevitable
Tired of Breaking Free.

Insaan Insaan Hauta Hai
Kalaa , Gora , Peela ya Sawla.

Insaan Insaan Ko Hi Maarta Hai
Dhan, Kapda , Kaam Ya Audaa.

Insaan Insaan Hi Reh Jaata Hai.
Waqt , Aqaal , Jagaah Ya Saubaat

Insaan Insaan Tau Nahi Bantaa
Gadddar, Kaatil , Na Farmaan Ya Jhoota.

Insaan Insaan Hau Hauta Hai
Waqt Bhi Badaal Jaayi Woh Nahi Badlai Ga

When the Candle Burns.
It Burns.

External Conflicts can still be solved...
Internals may take a lifetime or more....

The more I Learn
The more I Burn

Ab Yeh Sangeen Sa Sawaal
Phir Sai Kar Raha Hai Bhawaal
Aaakhir Mai Kaun Hu ||

Kya Hu Mai Ek Hawa Ka Jhaukha
Yaa Bas Woh Mitti Ka Anmol Tukda ||

Kya Hu Mai Woh Nadi Ka Paani
Yaa Bas Woh Wruksh Ki Sansaani.

Kya Hu Mai Woh Na Bujti Roshini
Yaaa Bas Woh Kaunai Ki Andheri.

Aaakhir Mai Kaun Hu ||

Same Path..
Different Cars.
Same Destination...

Simple Words Simple Meaning
Chanted Every Day and Night
Times of Birth and Death
Times of Happiness and Sadness
Times of Peace and War
Times of Health or Pain
Simple Words Simple Meaning
Understanding it yet  may take a life time
Simple Words Simple Meaning

Are Treasures not buried
So are the words of Wisdom.

If the small drop of water
Falling on the Solid Rock
Persistently can create a Crevice
And Finally Entering it.
So can my Poems too.

Walking on this path
Again and Again  
Tired and Confused
Its not the Diameter
Nor the Rotations
Its about the Purification
Towards Infinite Perfection.

Some Doors
Cannot be Closed.

If only ....

The Majority still lives
      In the Beautiful Illusion
Created By the Minority.

Some write to be heard
Some write to just vent out
Some write to be appreciated
Some write to share experiences.
Some write to just write.
