That Day

Someday,
I will find you as my strength
my strongest attribute.
I dont know where, I dont know when.
But someday,
the distances between us
would collapse and
you might never come to stay
but the little piece of your soul
shall be my home.

Each day as I move ahead,
each new exploration
each new revelation,
the old of me withers away
and newness forms my personality.
Our journeys are unstoppable,
we move until we have breathes to count,
and with every breath that is exhausted,
your image turns into a mirage,
your essence seems illusive
and the pacts, deceptive.
A lookback to left out plains
brings about storms of anxiety,
a shrill scream calls out,
as if calling me back home.
Calling me back to you.
But motive is to keep moving.
Without expectations of a destination
but in the secure knowledge
that it is not far.

I wait for nothing this moment
But that day,
When you'll finally be my address.
Each day, you die in my mind,
but the love resurrects you
regardless of the rules the world has taught.
And that day, you'll be as mortal as me,
we'll live together in each other's embrace,
inseparable.
And may be I would wish no more mortal days to be given to me,
I shall ask no more sunrises or dusks,
cause the eternity of life shall
by the will of the love
be all accumulated in that day.
And may be, being alone
shall not be any disturbing anymore.

All I wake up,
each morning, is in the wait
of that sunrise that shall shine from within.
Al forl I close my eyes,
each night, is in the wait for
the night that shall end the wait for the end.

Ravana

na hi khabar manzil ki
Na ghar ka koi thikana,
na raston ki koyi samajh
na hume jaane ye zamana,
apni baandh gathrhi umeedon ki,
safar-e-zindagi par hum ho chale ravana.

Akele aaye the,
akele hi hai jana,
teer ki disha pakde,
humne ab laut na kabhi ana.
Raahgir milte hain dost nahi,
kuch safar jo kismat me likha,
saath milta hai, saathi nahi,
hume na raahgiro mein koi apna dikha.
Taluk bhi hum rakhna nahi chahte,
In aate jaate hava ke jhokon se,
kis cheez ka nishan hain inme,
jo hum talashen in logon me?

Gum bhi humein nahi koi,
chaahe khushi ki bhi na koi aas hai,
nazar tikki guzarti duniya par,
bus ek yaad jo paas hai.
Kitne suraj doobe, kitne chaand chadhe,
humare paas na koi hisaab hai,
gaadi ke pahio ki kaalis se,
roz ek panna bhar dete hain, is zindagi ki jo kitaab hai.

Koi desh hamara nahi,
koi mulk paraya nahi,
kuch na khone ke liye,
kuch bhi humne paya nahi,
Dastaan hai safar,
aur kuch bhi na humein dikhana,
sang ashayen leke,
hum ho chale ravana.
