Illegal but free



The distant call was from her inner self
Of right and wrong together oh well
Both felt right and both seemed wrong
Both were weak and both were strong
Those mountains and that cliff
Of they together in highs and riff
And these times of togetherness
Of a strange connection yet some barrenness
Of running from and a little first step
Of cosmic trance and a cozy wrap
Of thinks problematic and situations unacceptable
Of emotional intensity and sensational fables
She tried hard to sought them out together
But only solution was to stabber
She was not dishonest she knew it
But the dishonesty in her head was not fit
There were some huge dark holes for sure
Else she wouldn’t ever have gone for any cure
But steps taken were injurious
To others and she – all furious
She was in a fit and she had to do something
She only she knew the entire thing
But wherever she went, whatever she chose
Everything seemed an optional choice
There was no sure shot one way
There was no one final stay
She had to keep on making choices she realized
That made her feel lonely and surprised
And yet she was strangely free
To be what she never wanted to be
And yet that was she
Illegal but free.

Name flora



Rainbow patterned spirit
Vibrant aura
shades numerous
Name - Flora.
She was liked her fragrance
often considered strong.
Deep into that storm
she was long gone.
Which was devoid of fragrance
but had visuals full power
Of the beauty of the valley .
and poisonous flowers
Tempting was that vision
Tempted was she
Touch was the act
And there died she.
In her agony she realized it all
that all attractive things are not good but strolls
It costed her self to learn it
It took her spirit to adjourn it
She was fragrance and she knew it
Was not ‘touch’ - an other genre’s hit
Visions and touch were sister sensations
She was from other creations
Beyond appearance and structures
Her nature was to be felt without architecture
She was born to fly
to endless destinations
From heart to soul
till elemental emancipation
Where from she got into other departments
Maybe to learn that those were simply tents
Significant where they were places and met her
But unable to equip her with her home’s fur
She caressed that flower one last time
Left her memory and entire lifeline
And once again set out to fly
In a new diva for some happy cry
And this time she knew the dilemma
Of pain of pleasure and her stamina
That no matter what befall
She was bound to face it all
Coz she had the role and strength to do that
coz she was cosmos herself yet its pet
None could have accompanied her forever
None had the same nature she had of no matter
Being accompanied was painful for her
As it required a closed bottle without stir
And there were pangs of extreme jolts
To allow her moments of credited freedom and find faults
But that was not acceptable to her
That was not what was her
So she understood it all and stepped out
To touch new realms without any doubt
She had no expectations no complaints anymore
All she had was loads of dreams in store
And she knew she’ll make them true
Coz she was fragrance far off from woo.

Story of a firefly



There in a meadow I caught a firefly
Struggling hard it tried to fly
I wanted it to fly and fly more
I even showed it an open door
but the insect was blindfolded I guess
it kept on banging its head in mess
the tube light was what it wanted
moony-lightbeams simply flaunted
its fight, struggle and failures
its determination and will’s flurrs
it kept on trying and trying
Dreaming of that one moment of end of worrying
its wry ended for sure
with its life it attained its cure
it lost its life along with its entity
maybe it reached its desired city
but utopia has faith and dreams
most are unreal, mind’s fatal streams
so all i saw was its dead body
and a posture of bravery in prosody
but the final expression was strain
it included everything vain
the time wasted and things admired
that eternal struggle and end all fired
all its faith, labor flights in ashes
it failed to cause even minor rashes
but it gained injuries too hard
to make it stronger but still no bard
it got struck and died in that closet itself
in that suffocating but attractive shelf
the advertisement was miles apart from reality
it took its life to understand its duality.

सिसक जुबां की



अँधेरी रात की धीमी सी चांदनी
फुसफुसा के गयी जब एक भीनी सी मुस्कान
सिरसिरा सी गयी सिसक जुबां की
जब लिया उस एक पल ने थाम

बदन की चीख मानो शांत हो गयी
शाम के चिराग में इक सिरहन सी दौड़ गयी
इश्क़ की उस जलती शमा की रात से
अँधेरी रात की डबडबाती आवाज़ से

है सी लगी उस शहर में
जहाँ थी सांस उसके गेहेन में
थमी सी सांसें रुके से दिन
उल्फत भरी ज़िन्दगी
दिल्लगी उनके बिन

रुतबा सा नूर में
आँखों में जगजाई
कहते हैं हमने कर दी
जगहसाई जगहसाई

हिसाब लेंगे उस खुदा से
ऐ खुदा हमने क्या की खुदाई
कि किस्मत में लिख दी
इतनी तन्हाई और जुदाई

याद करेंगे जब वो एक शहर सा
मिल के बैठेंगे हम उसके हीर सा
झिलमिलाती आँखों से जब निकलेंगे लहू बन कर
कर देंगे खुद को उसके नाम
सब हार कर
सब हार कर
