Dreams oh these dreams

As I lie in bed, still half asleep

I can feel your arms around me,
your lips on my neck,
your warm breath,
caressing me gently.
How I wish never to wake up,
unless its you who wakes me.

अप्रैल का महीना

अप्रैल का महीना थोड़ा नर्म थोड़ा गर्म सन्तरा भी मिलता है और आम भी गोभी भी और भिंडी भी गरम पानी से नहाते है और कार में ऐसी चलाते हैं नए साल के प्लान बनाते हैं बीते साल के बही खाते टटोलते हैं अप्रैल का महीना थोड़ा नर्म थोड़ा गर्म ऐसे ही एक साल काफी गरम था अप्रैल का महीना अस्तित्व पिघला पहचान पिघली आमदनी पिघली लावा ही लावा था सब तरफ महीने बीते जलते जलते... फिर इस लावे में कुछ रंग मिलाए कुछ हिम्मत जुटाई कुछ इरादे किए कुछ मदद मांगी काफी तपस्या की काफी कुछ त्यागा इस अप्रैल के महीने से शुरुआत हुई एक नए सफर की मालूम नहीं था तब क्या अंजाम होगा सही गलत, अच्छा बुरा कौन जाने बस रंगों के साथ उधेडः-बुन में लग गए कभी जद्दोजहद, मायूसी, नाकामयाबी कभी पुरूस्कार, तारीफ और छोटी छोटी खुशियां कई पड़ाव पार किये... आज इस अप्रैल के महीने में आज ही के दिन पंद्रह साल पूरे हुए उस पिघलती दोपहर के जब ज्वालामुखी फटा था और लावा बहा था वहाँ आज एक न...

A Single Woman

Goes back at night to an empty house an empty bed sleeps cuddled with her teddy bear waking up alone to another day gets ready puts on her best dress and that dab of mascara with the mask on she is now ready to face life again to conquer a few more hearts to be wanted again Shubhra 17th March, 2007 edited on July 3, 2007
