The Veil

A guy caught my attention in the mall. I kept staring at him so that he looks back. Following his instincts, he searched for the eyes which gazed him. I blinked quickly to assure that it was me. He smiled.

I pulled up my brows asking him what is he looking at ? He gestured with his hands that my eyes are beautiful. I blushingly closed my lids. I blew out my pupils to his muscles and danced my eyes to compliment his gym body. He turned pink.

He invited me to nearby coffee shop. I angrily glared back and directed him towards my family. He requested me to pull up my veil so that he can see the face which adorned such beautiful eyes. I pulled down my net and turned my back.

His restlessness was apparent in mirror. I pointed finger at my veil and signalled him that it’s enough for now. His innocent eyes and folded hands melted me.

So I turned and pulled up my net. He sighed and smiled. Pulling my eyebrows, I asked what now ? He swing his neck slowly to both sides and fluttered his eyes like dancing in his head. So I started blinking my eyes quickly but he gave confusing look. I blinked my eyes slowly & repeatedly just to have some fun.

Thinking with my pupils up, I puzzled him and pointed him to find these eyes and left in hurrily after my mother.

Evil Doll

A Doll, with red cheeks,
Blonde hair that tweaks,
Colourful frocks she wear,
With sparkles every where,

Innocence which catches hold,
Smile that cannot be sold,
But eyes are more than it seem,
Iris have something else to gleam,

Her corrupt designs never got grounded,
Causing many groups disbanded,
Nobody bother about it,
So they fall under her armpit,

A boy gets in fallout,
He is saved by a scout,
But there are many fool,
So she continues to rule..!!

Sunday…

Here comes cherished Sunday,
Whole weak i planned to lay,
Though sleeping till forenoon,
But no plan to leave bed any soon.

From window comes the sunlight,
Turning my black heart to white,
Prodding not to waste my stay,
Surprisingly life options began to weigh.

As far as I could see,
I found a green tree,
Watching the birds who are free,
Wondered could I also be ?

With the thoughts came night,
But i couldn't set anything right,
From the window I gazed moon,
Realised i am lazy to change life's tune.

Confession of a fresher’s heart

It was my first day,
Feeling happy and gay,

I entered the class,
Eyes rolling behind my glass,

That face got me stuck,
Like a batsman out on duck,

She is the who comes in dream,
Same as an artist's theme,

Beauty very still,
A touch will surely drill,

Though her face was dumb,
It made me numb,

She became the reason for regularity,
Driving me to insanity,

For masses she was just another girl,
But I knew this was my angel,

Friends suggested to propose,
But I relentlessly opposed,

In the mean time,
I found another dime,

Got stuck again,
Out on duck once again,

And heart moved on !
Turning off and on !!

इश्क की अर्जी

इश्क में हूँ मैं मेरे खुदा ।
मेरी गलतियों को नकार दो ।।
अपनों से रहने लगा हूँ जुदा ।
इस दिल के मर्ज़ का इलाज़ करो ।।

ये अफसाना न बन जाए दास्ताँ ।
इस मोहब्बत को मुकाम दो ।।
मेरी ज़िन्दगी का है अब यही फ़लसफ़ा ।
मुझ पर एक बार तो ऐतबार करो ।।

शायर-ऐ-आह

कद्र न की इस ज़ालिम ज़माने ने ।
दर्द-ऐ-दिल मिटाने गया जब मयखाने में ।

हाल ये हो गया है इस बेकद्री का ।
हाल हो ये गया है इस बेकद्री का ।।

जब जब दिल से निकलती है आह !
लोग कहते है वाह वाह वाह वाह !!

दोस्त की इल्तजा

मेरे दोस्त ने मुझसे पूछा-
“नाम तो बता उस खुशनसीब का ।
रहती है जो तेरे दिल में और
साहील है तेरी कविता का ।”

जवाब मेरा कुछ यूं निकला-
“इस गुमनाम मोहब्बत को तू नाम न दे ।
भावना के बवंडर को हाशिये पर ही रहने दे ।
मत आज़मा मेरे सब्र का बांध।
तिनका तिनका हो जाएगा मेरा गुमान।
बहुत सुकून है इस झूठे दिलासे में ।
की ख़ुशी मिलती है उसकी मुस्कराहट से ।
ऐ अज़ीज़ गुस्ताखी माफ़ कर दे ।
बेहतर होगा की ये इल्तिजा अधूरी रहे ।”

That girl !!!

She is like water,
Breaking the ground,
Taking its own course,
Blessing when its calm,
Fierce when needed,

She is like fire,
Illuminating environment,
Giving warmth of emotions,
Energising the system,
Burn away when messed,

She is like air,
Spreading the fragrance,
Soothing tensed minds,
Blowing away the chaff,
Ripping up what comes in way,

That girl is bouquet of virtues.

Love…

The stories, the books,
The songs, the movies,
Showed something
Called love.
But left me
Wondering ?
What is actually,
Love !!

Then she came
Like a cool breeze,
Spreading fragrance.
Lighting up
The lamp of my life,
She was the missing link,
The solace, the refuge,
I was searching for !

She made me understand love,
Its vastness like space,
Its volume like ocean,
Its count like stars.
She is epitome of love,
Its definition,
Its explanation,
Its description.

The word recalls of her,
The feelings surround her,
The emotions erupt for her,
For me she is The Love.
