तो हम यूहीं चल पड़ें 

वापस उसी ओर 

जहां से अंधियारी आई 

सवेरा भी उसी मोड़ 

लाल लाल लालिमा 

सवेरे का दस्तक देती है 

कल कल कलकी चोट 

क़दमों को पीछे  खीचती है 

फिर भी हम यूहीं चल पड़े 

कदम से कदम बढ़ाते हुए  

दिल की दस्तक को सुनने को 

नए सवेरे की ओर

a blank page

a pen

and no words

a poetry without a rhythm

a rhyme which doesn't ring

a night which turns agenda-less

a star which is lost

a friend whose far far away

a friend whose so close yet

a lover whose lost in ideal

a partner whose calculating the logic

a finger which has interrogated every angle

a tear which drops too easily

a straying lock of hair

a sleepy pair of eyes

a commitment of a lifetime

a parting of a week

a song, a sonnet

a ballad, a cuckoo

a nightmare, a dream

a hope, a dawn
