AlvidaWrote after a long time....felt happy that the pen still works..not so great but things will look better after sometime (hopefully)
kehne ke bahut se zariye hain magar, kehna ho alvida tumhein to kaise kahein
honth khulte hain magar kaanp kar rah jaate hain, lafzon ko nikalne ki ijaazat kaise dein,
dehleez par tum kab talak rahoge khade, paanv bahar jo nikalo to hum koi baat kahein,
na tum mein hai itna jazbaa ki gam ko jazb karo, na main hi hoon khuda ki khud ko rok sakoon,
hawa ka shor hai bas beech apne, par main dhadkan ki har awaaz kaise gart karoon,
padhke saanson ko tumhari hairat mein hain meri saansein, kahin dil se nikal jaane ki na jurrat ye karein,
kehne ke bahut se zariye hain magar, kehna ho alvida tumhein to kaise kahein
honth khulte hain magar kaanp kar rah jaate hain, lafzon ko nikalne ki ijaazat kaise dein,
hain kai shokh wadiyon ke raaste aage, tum mujhe bhool bhi sakte ho wahan par jaakar
fir kyon kadam rok kar rah jaate ho, mujhse darte ho ya khud se, ya rahte ho hakeekat se dar kar
yahin dhoondho, tumhari ungaliyon ke hain nishaan yahin, kisi daali par kurede honge hum donon ke naam
inse poocho, ye kahein kaise tumse, nahi ye bol sakte to alvida fir kaise kahein
kehne ke bahut se zariye hain magar, kehna ho alvida tumhein to kaise kahein
honth khulte hain magar kaanp kar rah jaate hain, lafzon ko nikalne ki ijaazat kaise dein,
