Equilibrium

Revulsion
Like an uninvited guest
Has crept into
The day that was.

Hope
However
Comes as a pleasant surprise
For the day
That will be.

And I sail
As the hyphen
In between the two.

Rogue

I wonder
what happens
In the dark corners of your mind
When no one is reading you.

I wonder
if in those moments too
You are able to hide
the stains
on your conscience.

Sonder

The imagery
Of the darkness
That lies within them
Behind them
Is condescending.

Is it a curse
Or a blessing
To be wanting to hold on to life
Despite.

May be I'm in love
With the darkness.

A pleasure it is
To be able to
see the glow worms though
To be able to
Live.

Raat

Ai raat

Teri aankho se dekhte hain jab khud ko

Thodi si roshan…thodi si purnoor

Zindagi dikhaayi deti hai

Shor ke nishaan peechhe chhod kar

Jab tu aati hai dabe paanv

Tere syaahi se kaalepan me

Khamoshi ki awaaz

Sunaayi deti hai

Ai raat

Tu nahi dhalegi yunhi

Kisse kahaniyaan, loriyaan

Aur ishq ko

Sunsaan chhod kar

Tere chaand ki roshni

Tere sitaaron ki chamak

aur tere veeraan saaye

ye sab

ab mere hain.
