The Quiet Road

The road lay open, empty but not meaningless. Light touched the ground gently, as if reminding it that even silence has warmth. There were no signs, no clear turns ahead— only the understanding that not every journey demands certainty. I moved forward, not chasing an ending, but learning that sometimes

खराब वक़्त

कफ़न ओढ़े हुए हैं दुनिया काफ़ी दिनों से कुछ मासूम बच्चों की खिलखिलाहट-ए-आवाज़ों के साथ। चाँद का भी वो आख़िरी नहाना, मुर्दा सूरज का वो दफ़्नाना, ता

Thoughts: The Silence That Speaks

The lost maiden, Wanders deep within, With thoughts of him, and what had drawn her in, She willed those thoughts to leave,  Recalling the torture she reprieved, The sheer panic and congestion,  As he stood towering, with bated aggression, Stocky, wide and unattractive,  Unloving the maiden with fierce refraction, He

ऐ हमसफ़र

ख़्वाबों को अकेले देखना और उन्हें सींचना रातों को करवटें बदलते हुए सोचना और सब पीछे छोड़ना ऐ हमसफ़र जो इस कश्मकश-सी ज़िंदगी में पाँव रखना चाहो तो आना आना हज़ारों बे

English

Ashes of a Forgotten Dawn

I walked through corridors that had no doors, where the walls whispered my old names and the floor remembered my weight. A clock melted in my palm; its hands pointed toward things I could not reach, and I let them slip like sand through broken fingers. The air tasted of

Beyond Touch

Some connections don’t need hands to hold— they live in the quiet between heartbeats, in the way your name still feels like home when whispered in my mind. They don’t fade with time; they just settle deeper, like roots that keep growing even in dry earth. Sometimes I
