Some words minced,
Filtered. Unsaid.
Left hanging on the tip of the tongue,
Nearly taking form,
As a sound, a look, a breath
But died within.

-

Sometimes,
You do mince words,
Because,
They may make you,
Cross a line or two...

सुर्ख़-रू होता है इंसाँ ठोकरें खाने के बा'द
रंग लाती है हिना पत्थर पे पिस जाने के बा'द

Tumhe Hogi jarurat to sath na honge ham
Tumhe hoga ahsaas par mere jajbat na honge.
Abhi de rha hu dilasha khud ko ye samja kar.
jab ladegi duniya tumhare saath fir bhi tumhare khilaf na honge ham.
