Leaving, Like the Land Does


 I loved you
the way the earth loves rain—
open, patient,
never counting how much it gave.

But some clouds pass
without breaking.
Some skies hold everything back.

So I learned
how fields do it—
how they rest
when nothing comes,
how they do not beg the season
to change.

I did not leave in a storm.
I left like dusk—
slow, certain,
with the light still warm
on my back.

What I carried with me
was not loss,
but knowing:
even the soil
must sometimes lie fallow
to remain alive.

And one day,
something will grow
without being asked.

Ye kaisa Ishq hai!


तुम आए थे जैसे कोई दुआ
बिना माँगे, बिना आवाज़ किए—
और मेरे दिल में जगह बना ली
एक हल्की-सी मुस्कान की तरह।

तेरी बातों में एक सुकून था,
तेरे आने से घर जैसा महसूस हुआ।
हर शाम तेरी, हर सुबह तेरी—
मानो मेरी पूरी दुनिया तुमसे शुरू होकर
तुम पर ही खत्म होती थी।

पर प्यार भी कभी-कभी थक जाता है,
बिना वजह, बिना किसी शोर के।
हमारे बीच जो धड़कनें थीं
वो एक दिन चुपचाप धीमी पड़ गईं।

तुम दूर होने लगे,
और मैं हर दिन टूटता रहा—
ये समझते हुए कि पकड़ना
हम दोनों को और दर्द देगा।

आज तुम नहीं हो,
पर मेरी छाती में एक जगह
अब भी तुम्हारे नाम की धड़कती है।
कभी-कभी यादों के दरवाज़े खोलकर
मैं तुम्हें चुपचाप देख लेता हूँ—
बिना शिकायत, बिना सवाल।

क्योंकि जो प्यार सच्चा होता है,
वो खत्म नहीं होता—
बस एक कोने में बैठकर
हमेशा-हमेशा रोशनी देता रहता है।

Malaal-e-Ishq

Maloom hai ki tu mujhse ishq nahi karta,
Maloom hai ki tu mujhse ishq nahi karta,
Lekin ye malaal bhi nahi,
Ki sirf main tujhse ishq karti hoon.

Jab bhi baat karti hoon tujhse, 
Tere khayalon mein doob jaati hoon.
Tu saamne hote huye bhi,
Tere baare mein sochti hoon. 

Kehne ko toh tune haami bhar di,
Kehne ko toh tune haami bhar di,
Rishte ko nibha bhi raha hai tu,
Fir bhi jaane kyun,
Tu door sa lagta hai mujhse yun. 

Tujhe khone ka darr sa laga rehta hai,
Tujhe khone ka darr sa laga rehta hai,
Jaane ye khayaal kab aya mujhe,
Fir bhi lagta hai ki tujhe main riha kar doon! 

Laazmi hai ki tujhe main riha kar doon,
Par iss dil ka kya karoon,
Jo tujhse riha hona nahi chahta!

Anjaan Ishq


 Jab bhi aaine mein shakl dekhegi,

Sirf uska chehra hi dekhegi...

Jisey paane ki itni koshish ki thi usne, 

Wo pehle se hi kisi aur ka tha...💔💔

Ye jaan gayi thi woh,

Maan bhi gayi woh,

Par dil kahaan maana,

Woh toh sirf pyaar karna jaanta tha...

Across the Miles

We began like dawn!

Soft light spilling into laughter,
every message a melody,
every silence, sweet anticipation.

The miles felt weightless then!

Carried by promises and dreams,
our hearts learned to speak
in time zones and moonlight.

Now the rhythm slows!


Calls fade, words tire,
but beneath the quiet ache,
something steady breathes.

Love does not vanish!


It changes its form,

A quiet flame learning patience,
A root growing underground.

So let the space between us
teach us new ways to touch!

For distance is only geography,
and love,
Our truest homecoming!

Kashmakash

Aansu beh chale aankhon se, 
          Wo bhi beh chali unke saath-saath,
unn gehraiyon mein!

Dil samandar-sa bhar gaya,
Kashti bhi kahi beh gayi kahin.

Ab kahan jaaye wo,
Kashmakash si thi usko.

Wahi dariya mein doob jaaye ya
yunhi paani mein beh jaaye?

Jab Tum Mile


Adhuri khwahishon ko mile pankh, 

Rangon ki bauchaar aayi,

Jab tum mile.

Khwahishon ka silsila shuru hua,
Dil ke armaan kuch pal jaage,
Jab Tum mile.

Baarish ki pehli boond giri,
Kuchh boondon ne chhua,
Toh aisa laga ki,
Tum Mile.

Tumhari ek muskurahat ne
chuppi todi meri,
Man khil gaya,
Dil machal gaya,
Tum jo mile!

Ek hi jhatke mein duniya ulat gayi,
Tumne jo kaha mujhse,
Jaan ho meri!

Tum jo mile...
