Life can't escape

Wind bangs my window,

Leaves scream,

Calling me out,

Life can't escape.

All I see is a moon,

Shining in the dark night,

Playing hide and seek,

Mocking at me.

Shadows dancing on the walls,

I sit and stare,

Fight a battle,

With the visible and unknown.

Deep are the valleys of truth,

Harsh are the roads of life,

Hidden are meanings of reality,

Broken are the jars of hope.

Emotions turn into experiences,

Tears to stones,

Fears to graves,

Human to just a body….

Was it just me?

Was it just me?

Or did I really see

An ocean of love

Flown on the wings of a dove

Wrapped in the colors of sincerity

Seducing me to the peaks of ecstasy

Was it only me?

Or did I really see

A vague portrait of the unknown

Or a symbol of the shining dome

Sprinkling fragrance from even the thorns

Embraced my soul despite of the norms…

Dishonored

Childhood sits on a pedestal and weeps, 
There is nothing left for you to sweep.

Fears and tears are broken and lost, 
Elders won’t burden you with them to keep. 

Dark realities are hard to digest, 
Keep it going, is easy to suggest. 

Innocence is not ever lasting, 
Plucked and flicked from the concealed nest. 

It outgrows from those stained attires, 
Reminiscence becomes a mockery and satire. 

Hush your screams and slaughter the pain, 
Remain scorching in dishonor’s fire.

Happy Independence Day

They head towards the doors they entered,
Leaving the rest, they were self centered.

Walked through puddles of blood,
Looted the funds of even the funds.

Weapons circulated like milk and honey,
For them everything seemed funny.

Gowns were made of Human Skin,
Boots were sewn of inflation.

Justice was a show piece,
Law and Order was deceased.

Bills were passed and ratified,
Unfortunately nothing was applied.

Command and control was in one hand,
Everyone danced on this land.

Broken lives and dead bodies lay,
They all will follow you one day.

Fear of death embraced them,
Security guards caressed them.

Democracy was the slogan since 65years,
Dear public enjoy it, no more tears.

These 5 years were a horrific sight,
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY
Till elections have a safe flight.....

Struggling to Survive

Pains and cries,
Are two sides,
Of the same coin.
Deep rooted are they,
Emotions and logics do not join.

Ancient norms and cultures,
Religions and traditions,
Form to make up,
This global structure.

Harsh were the spoken words,
Timid the beating hearts,
Once they clashed,
Drawn were the swords,
Civilizations drew apart.

Wandered on lands and seas,
Ruled from cores to trees,
The game of gains and loss,
Has no end to greed and fame,
Never would it set us free.

Humanity still struggles to breath,
Justice still longs to break the chains of creed,
Love still, is no more an antidote,
Peace still is soaked in blood on the streets!

WASIAT

Kiya Nam Doun Is Tehreer Ko
Is Beraang Tasveer Ko
Kuch Waqt Ki Nazakat Hai
Baki Uski Takat Hai

Dekh K Tarz e Zindagi Sub Ki
Khub Kehke Marti Hai

Usne Pucha K Tujhe Dar Nai
Jawab Tha Ye
Kia Wo Mera Ghar Nahi

Dekhti Rahi Bejaan Ankhoun Me
Jab Tatola Rooh Ko Jism Me
Chaunk K Pucha
Kidar Hai Wo!!!

Mere Laboun Pe Muskan Jo Ai
Sath Ashkoun Ki Barsat Thi Lai
Tera Bohat Intezar Tha Kia
Tune Bohat Bekarar Tha Kia

Utha Le Janaza Bohat Deer Ho gai
Meri Niyat Saer Ho Gai 
Kisi Ko Kia Alvida Kahna Hia
Akhri Paegham Dena Hai

Han Theru!!
Meri Chand Dosto Ko Dudh Dalte rehna
Thand Me Kuch Urhate Rehna
Thori Si Nazme Hain
Kuch Kise Hian
Kuch Nishaniyan Hian
Kuch Kaghzat Hian
Ik Naqsh Hai Mere Watan Ka
Sath Me Hai Parcham Uska

Sub Hawale Karna Uske
Saja Ho Mehtab Jiske

Qabar Pe Phool Na Houn Beshak
Bus Ik Katba Ho
Jis Pe Likha Ho
Mukamal Kia Safar Is Dunia Ka
Saqii Na Rahi Bach Gaya Tukra Wasiat ka...

Nature Of The World

Everything has its own significance. It depends how we perceive it.If one looks closely nature speaks our language. We can understand but only if we are literate enough.
The lavish green colour depicts the general population of the world. The various hues of green are the individual identity of humans. The whole year round they exist but as silent observers. They face the wrath of every season.
In the same world of nature, rebels exist too. They are who represent the red, purple, and orange leaves. Even thou they exist in the same family. But yet are different and prominent from others. They have a stronger existence than others. The various colours show the different school of thoughts.
Flowers are the ornaments of nature. They give a feeling of serenity. Like jewelry makes women look pretty. Insects and bugs which nibble on the roots are the deeds which exist in the society.
The clouds are like dreams which form and blow away leaving behind images in mind. Rain is like the joys and sorrows of life. Winds are the unbreakable bonds. Even then they are silent they still exist.
Sun and moon are the forces that shine and calm our lives like religion does. Fences and barbwire's which divide the areas are like the borders of nations.
Mountains are the egos which are hard to demolish. Animals in the jungles create an atmosphere of discomfort. Rivers and seas are the food without which it’s hard to exist.
Wings of spring blow life into nature. Pot of life boils on flames of summer. A time for parting arrives in autumn when justice stops flourishing. Rebels take a stand and sacrifice their lives. Winter takes a silent yet mournful nap.
To wake up in the vicious circle again....
