چپ ہوں ، چپ اورپھر ایک لمحہ ذرا سا
باتوں کی باتوں میں ایک خیال ذرا سا

رات ابھی، ایک چاند چھپا سا
بادل ہوا میں ایک راز ذرا سا

لفظ بھی ہوں، ستار بھی ایک انپڑھا سا
ناچ گاتے دریاوں میں ایک گیت ذرا سا

ہچکچاتا سمندر بھی ہوں، مدھم آسماں
بل کھاتی ہواوں میں ایک جھونکا ذرا سا

بند سورج، سیاہ، پھر کھل اٹھتا تماشا
شور بھی، شور سے اگے ایک ہجوم ذرا سا

تم سے کیسے میں کہوں سانس لہر بننے کی بات
گمان بھی ہوں تو ایک گمان ذرا سا

Your Absence

Your Absence

Your absence is choking me.
Making me voiceless.
But.
Drip.
Drip.
Splash!
Did you hear that?
Words of pain are bleeding from my plastered mouth.

Sentimentality.
Is no more than agony.

Thud!
Poignant promises shatter the floors.

lub
dub
My heartbeat rumbles your name.

Splatter.
Clatter!
My muffled cries are shedding salty tears,
Mercilessly tearing the tiles apart.

Swish...
The salt from my tears evaporate.

And so do you...

My longing for your presence is so great that it chokes me, I can only speak in gasps and muffled cries. I can only speak by pouring out blood mixed with words from my mouth. My tears have become too salty, too sour that they tear the floors. Please come to make my tears sweet again and stop my mouth from bleeding for my ink for you never dries. Never.

Does it Really Matter?

Does it Really Matter?

It doesn't matter
What he, she, or they say!

It does not matter
If they care or do not care.

For not anywhere
Will it matter !

Even in the eternal
Scheme of things!

Only that we get to forgive -n- forget
That is what really matters!

Think about your anger. Does all that we get upset about really worth the toll on our lives that it takes. The cancer, the high blood pressure, the shot nerves we ened up with. Is it worth it? Or does it really matter?

The Grosbeak

The Grosbeak

Born beautiful, dies the same
She's too free to be bound by the shackles of time
She follows the sunshine
She's too ambiguous to have a name
And she'll certainly never ask for mine
****! There she goes with the wind
Leaving me with nothing but a melancholy grin
