Susceptibility

Why? Tell me why?
I ponder why you avoid me?
Couldn't  you see!?
I love you till I die..
I cannot see you, yet I see I.

Across the Sky

Meet me halfway across the sky
We may stay or say goodbye
So far so good on that same road
The travel started in similar node

I Godda Be Someone and Soda You

I don't know
But I've been told
That I can't live
Without the fold
And I believe it
Because it's true
I can't be a me
Without a ewe

Fifty Fifty

I asked my heart
Do you love her?
He says love, help, and save her.
My mind wonders!
After all that!!
All that were fifty-fifty 
My heart replied.


Kal Raat Chandani Thi

Kal raat chandani thi,  mousam mein nami thi
halki si woh barsaat or barf jami thi
Per raas na aya azhar woh nazara
Mai tha, meri tanhaayi, bas teri kami thi

Metal On My Knee

I can see small pieces of metal on a knee 
and I walk into a shadow
and puts me down
because my pants
black and worn
not shall gleam as polished metal
over the knees

In Good Mood

Bless you
And so the day connects me to you
In good mood, I am here
Right here to write some of my inner
Not anymore inside
To eat to drink to have food
In good mood.

I Miss You

With you is a bliss
But your turn away from
The heart that feels an abyss
"I miss you" he says
"I really do" he resays
That's love from that & this
Tis as it is. Lips press .

Flat Tooth Beaver

Flat toothed beaver
gonna look at you
with a twinkle in
his eye and tell ya
the truth:
It's not how wrong you are
that matters, but
why you're wrong.

Then he got shot by the cops.

Power In a Flask

Why???
Why???
I can’t breath
Allah in treacherous ground
It is special
But not blind
Dust shakes
I can’t imagine
My lover from the wake
Let me breath, oh so Allah
When I come today

Tumhara Number

Dail karu tumhara number 

Dil ki adcan Mai waqut key 
khali pan Mai yaado key silsiley 
Madhosi key aalam Mai janey
 kuon Mai dail karu tumhara Number

Oblivion of Unicorn Infected Existence of Fecal Matter

I once told a lie 
as I looked her in the eyes
LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL
I just smashed a bowl

CB is a troll
In both sense
Wandering through minds of the unforgiven
As they irrationally spill their metaphorical hearts

I have seen it all

Doing good as always I’ve seen,
Losing all, gape and gaze I’ve seen,
Weird wind the ways of goodness,
One wilts, still steady stays I’ve seen.

Kaab Dekhu Aapki Muskan

Kaab dekhu aapki muskan 


Sooraj chand dekh liye gin liye 
Tare sabhi na khana chod diya
 kuch aapki yaad Mai bus doond 
rha hoon kaab dekhu aapki muskan 
Maam aapkey liye

My Comforter

Come Holy Spirit
Fill my soul
Conquer my heart
Make me whole

Share your love
Oh Holy Spirit
From the Father above
And Heaven as I near it

Walk with me
My comforter divinity
Give me the joy
Of the Holy Trinity

Khud Ko Smjhata Hu

Tujse mohabat nhi hai
Pehle duniya walo ko smjhata tha...

Tujhse mohbaat nhi hai
Ab 
Khud ko smjhata hu..

Main ba-wafa(faith-ful) Hu pehle tujhko smjhata tha..

Tu be-wafa(faith-less) hai
Ab 
Khud ko smjhata hu..

Have You Seen a Yellow Dove

Have you seen a yellow dove,
On a branch full of yellow fruits?
She did notice the photographer
He had to go, no more bother 
Does she know that he is a poet?
Birds friend birds lover.
Down to earth mind
Clean heart above

How To Love

My roots are trembling
through clay ******,
tumbling the landslide
that speaks every shake or so.
Leo roars and I await life,
Generic roving rumbles
reminding me of the world around,
but I never remember
how to cling to the ground.

Jism Hua Beyhal

jism hua beyhal 

Tum jo chalo phen kar payal 
Jo matko phen kar chandi
 apni kamar par tum jo muskurao
 laga kar kajal tum jo lo sansey bana
 kar phaheli mera jism hua
 beyhal paney tumhari jaan 

With love all 
Jagdish bajantri

Why Did the Fire Go Out

What happened to me
What happened to you
We don't remember
The things we use to do

No more tenderness
No more bliss
Cold shoulders
What did we miss

All I do is shout
All you do is pout
Cries and tears
When did the fire go out

To friend, father’s firmness ye give

Brother as friend no less ye give,
Or in life loneliness ye give,
If not mother’s sameness, O Fate, 
To friend, father’s firmness ye give.

Chocolate

I love my heart
When you feed chocolate

Happiness is enough for you
Your eyes tell

Have fun
Loses your sadness

Whenever I think in Thanhai
You come to be ghazal

and sometimes...

When you talk to yourself
My eyes also get wet

Life

Life is..
Living,
Breathing,
Blinking.
Life is..
Walking,
Running, 
Catching up.
Life is..
Thinking,
Wondering,
Making excuses.
Life is..
Talking,
Telling, 
Writing poetry.
Life is..
Wanting,
Loving,
Dying when you're not here.
