Armano ki ladiyan jala gaya koi,
Chingaari ko aag bana gaya koi,
Hum kaise uski ahat pehchante,
Jab saanson mein toofan macha gaya ho koi..
Kisse kuchh khaas dil se bana gaya koi,
Nagmon mein saaz saja gaya koi,
Hum kaise karein un aahon ka bayan,
Jab labon se labz chura gaya ho koi..
Face those fears
Kill those demons
You are better than
What you think you are..
Pull yourself up
Try to find a faith
Only you can find and push
Yourselves to a limit..
Dont depend on an angel
Dont wait for a miracle
Nothing ever happens to
Someone with a common man fate..
Find your cause
Change your path
There is only so much you can
Achieve going on this way!
It may be small
But you have your own destiny
A reason you’re still breathing
A reason you don’t know..
Stop making excuses
Stop finding faults in others
Peep inside and see what you got
And what you can make out of it..
Unless you fight the evil
You’ll be thriving on its venom
But again and again you got to try
Don’t give up and never cry!
Wind
Gushing through my hair
Speed
Beneath my feet
Chills
Down my spine
Warmth
Around my hands, twined
Saanson mein aaj,
Ye mehek kiski chhai hai..
Kaun ho gaya preet,
Kaun ab parchhai hai..
Hai labon pe naam jiska,
Zaalim wo ek harjai hai..
Everyday I live a little.
I see you smile and
I blush a little.
I be with you and
Crib a little.
I hold your hand and
Feel safe a little.
I blink my eyes and
Miss you a little.
I talk to you and
Hear a little.
I sit in your arms and
Forget the world a little.
Then the night turns in and
I grow sad a little.
Some boundaries separate us and
I die a little.
But to see you tomorrow
Gives me hope a little.
And in those dreams
I live a little.
Today I am scared
Towing my dreams
Towards the future
Tampering with my feelings and
Testing the mighty nature
Tonight I might not succeed
Take another plan next day, maybe
Then play with the rules
Try they might
To stop me, again, but
Tomorrow I will get back up
Trust my instincts
Try my luck
Tease the fate because
Truth shall prevail..
Though we want to enjoy
Though we want to be carefree
Though we want to let it go
Though we want to let life happen
Tis’ we who are scared?
To take the plunge
To do what we want!
There are plenty who say it is a mind-game
There are equally plenty who play lame
Time, duties bound us they say,
Tremble they do, when life makes them its prey!
The question is to live life willed by our wont?
The question is to risk it all and be selfish?
The question is, “Are liabilities important?”
The answer is break free!
The answer is the chains that bind us are our own creations!
The answer is do not get lost, and let life happen!
Guest post by Komal. See her blog here! With a simple funda of “I am compelled by curiosity”, she has gone ahead and contributed two poems for this series.. watch out for her alphabet “Y” too.. and do leave back feedback for this talented poetess.

Itni jaldi kya hai ghar jaane ki,
abhi toh shuruat nahi ki humne apni kahani ki,
tumhe ek lamha theherna toh padegi hi,
abhi toh koshish hi nahi ki humne rijhane ki..
Do labz sun le mere dil ka haal,
ki tu hi meri dhun hai aur tu hi meri taal,
bin tere mera jeevan hai aisa neeras,
jise badal na paaega koi bhi kaal..
Par teri preet jo bha gayi hai ab mann ko,
toh kuchh samajh nahi aata is baawre ko,
ek nazar mujhe taqalluf se dekh lene de tujhe,
jaane ye mauka mile na mile kal ko..
Ja ab tujhe mai aazad karta hoon,
tujhse door rehke bhi tera deedar karta hoon,
laut ja tu apne gaon apne desh,
par yaad rakh iss dar pe roz tera intezaar karta hoon..

Aaj in naino ko khol ke
Dekh toh baaki duniya daari zara
Sambhal apne sapno ko ankhiyon mein tu
Aur manzil se kabhi nazar na hata
_
Fir dekh kaise panchhi bhi
Gaate hain teri hi mann ki dhune
Aur lehraenge raaste ke sabhi phool
Agar kaanto ko tu seh sake
_
Drid nishchay se magar
Kshitiz se palkein mila ke tu chalna
Kyunki chahe ho raasta kitna bhi jatil
Haste haste un angaron par bhi hai chalna
