सब कुछ है नीला

मैं भी कभी कभी लिख लेता हूँ
मैं भी कभी कभी लिख लेता हूँ,जलता हूँ अक्सरउन लोगों सेजो कितनी आसानी से अपनी बात कह देते हैं,जो दिल में होता है उसे तुरंत ही रख देते हैं |कैसे?कैसे ज़िन्दगी इतनी सहल कर रखी है भला?क्यों नहीं कभी भरता तुम्हारी सोच का घड़ा?वह क्या
Pave New Paths
You know how when you meet a stranger, the first few days you always walk in with a perspective. There is this thrill of getting to know them huddled in your gut, playing fiddles with your psyche. You are constantly wrestling with the buzz of
Time for Bed
Sleep, sleep now,My sleepless nights,You have earned it. Haven’t you toiled enough?In the scorching sun,Your body is burnt. The mountain has moved an inch,The world, shaken by your faith,Repose! Splotches of your blood Are all dried up,They will heal soon. Lie down on this complacent

My Writing Pad
Each day is my writing pad,I carve letters through my routine,Some days sound the sameBut every page remains different.Some days don’t speak at all,While some days sing a song,Some end up getting torn,When I trundle on their edgesTo test at what point do I fallOut
