Let me be!!!

What seems small for you...
It could mean the world to me.

What you call insignificant..
It could mean very valuable.

What you may not care for..
I could die if, I did not preserve it.

What makes you happy..
could make me wonder why!!

What you chase..
It could never be mine.

We may have shared a path
but, my destiny is mine!!

You have loved your path and life..
Trust me, so do I for the path I chose in this life of mine!!!

मेरी रंगीनियां

मैं  ढूँढता रहा ज़िन्दगी में रंगीनियां और नयापन।
पर भुला सा बैठा  खुद के चले पथ को देखना ॥
मेरे इस पथ में इतने मोड़ हैं ।
जितनी हसीँ के ठहाके छूटे, और ग़मों कि आंसूं निकले ॥

कितने सारे रिस्ते जोड़े ।
कुछ छूट गये वक़्त के साथ, तो कई गड़ गये मेरे संग ॥
जो छूट गऐ उन्हें भुला न सका,जो जुड़ गऐ उन्हें याद न किया ॥

ईरादे कई किये, कई सपनों के संग।
वक़्त ने हर बार किया मुझे दांग॥
कुछ में इरादे थे पक्के, पर कोशिश था कम॥
कुछ गऐ छूट, तो कुछ रहे अधूरे॥

 हर बार सोचा कुछ करूँ नया या अलग।
लाऊं कुछ नयापन अपने में।
भूल बैठा कि हर सोंच में, मैंने एक नया इंसान को देखा।
एक नया नाटक बनते और बिगड़ते देखा।
हर लम्हे में एक रंगीनियां और नयापन देखा॥

Feel me Rise!!!

My mind runs amok,
like the wild horse without any reins.

It keeps seeking for the new horizons,
without any fear or guilt of loss.

Trying always to set me free and make me soar high,
like an eagle in the clear blue sky.

For my soul seeks no boundaries
breaking all the shackles of my fear.

Wanting to burn a lamp in the windy meadows,
yearning every bit to brighten my day.

With all my energy that i could share,
Oh! my friend feel me rise, with every breath that I take.

एक वादा खुदसे

ठहरा रहा उम्मीद से
की सुनेगा कोई ॥
पर इन लब्ज़ों की तन्हाई मैं
आया ना कोई ॥

मैं अपनी परछाई को
दोस्ती का वास्ता दे बैठा ॥
उन्हें छोड़ चला राहों में
जो हाथ पसारे खड़े थे,
उन चौराहे और गलियरों  में ॥

सायद न था कभी
अपने पे भरोसा ॥
जो यारों पे ना कर सका
उनके वादों कि सचाई का आस्था ॥

रह न जाऊं उन्ही पल्लों में
उस परछाई कि आड़ में॥
आशा कि उम्मीद है
थामूंगा आपने यारों कि हातों को ॥

यह वादा रहा खुद से
ढूंढूंगा अपने वजूद को ॥
पहचानूँगा अपने आपको
पर फिरसे कभी न खोउंगा अपपने आप को
किसी सन्नाटे वाली मोड़ पे ॥  

Shadow!!!

I stand petrified and terrified, 
looking at my shadow...
"What have i Done?"
What do I do??
Thoughts are crazy but the words have said
I know of none
for my feeling flutter
and my world stutters

The relationship I treasured
I loved and i cherished
seem to have drifted
by those mere words, that have cared for none!!!

I repent, I regret, I care now!!!
 But, the damage has scared
I broke a heart that i tended so long
I roam in the deep alleys of the past, 
hoping for a glimmer of hope and the warmth of love

I pray, I will care for the words I say
I dare not break my tender heard
for I stand petrified and terrified looking at my shadow
feeling lonely and cold
for the warmth of love and tender
with the only companion being my shadow (ego)!!!

Kite Relations

While drawing a kite for my son.. i realized how similar relationships are to that of a kite.. Each of us in a relationship seems to be flying a kite. When we begin we hold it tight and raise it high in out own best capabilities for the kite to get the gush of air filled with love and warmth.. The warmer the air the higher they soar.... And when it gets high up in the air, we got to let the string go loose so that it gets the distance and pull it a bit to make it soar high.. this is where we forget in our relationships.. we forget to give the space to travel the distance of time but we keep pulling a restraining it so that it gets the height but fails to live long....

Not sure how far it is true but yes what ever relationship i have been, it seems to hold good...
