"Love you" doesn't mean love anymore!!

We live in strange times what is seen is never shown what is heard, never said what is felt is not what's expressed "Love you" doesn't mean love anymore "hate you" doesn't mean hate either "sorry" is no longer a regret "thank you" no more an expression of gratitude "I am ok" never means things are alright and nothing is well in "I am well" and "all is well" "nice" no longer is so nice, and "that's ridiculous" may not be that bad A lifetime is spent deciphering meanings Reading between the lines and looking beyond the words Is a skill essential straightforward conversations are rare and life status always complicated... ...because We live in strange times...here "Love you" doesn't mean love anymore!!

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...

Anything but deceit…

Anything but deceit… I have forgotten you; Well almost. But, your memories, when they come, they sweep me unexpectedly like a storm. Events swirl in my mind with a flurry like the leaves that whirl with the force of the wind. Hurriedly I shut all the windows of my mind just as I would have done at home at the onset of a storm. The mind gets hazy and brown. The heart beats faster and face gets flushed red with rush of blood. Anger, hatred and disgust fill my thoughts. Just as rains succeed the summer dust storms, the storm within calms down as tears flow. Still, after all these years? Yes. How I wish I had lost you to anything but this. I ask myself questions. What if you’d gone off to some distant land, some road that was calling out your name, and a forbidden country from which no return was ever possible? Or if you had died, in a plane crash or in a road accident or just plain naturally? Then you’d be the man I thought you were and I, the woman that I want to be. I would have cried....
