Zindagi

Zindagi ke baare mai soochna chod diya humne
Zindagi jeene jo lage the ab

Zindagi ka ‘dissection’ karna chod diya  humne
Har pal ko jeena seekh rahe the ab

Zindagi ke boj ke tale daabna chod diya  humne
Zindagi pankh faylaye azaad uud rahi thi ab

Zindagi ka nazariya badal kar dekha to
Zindagi muskurane lagi thi ab 

Change

Changes in life is inevitable. And it is with these changes that we change too, unknowingly, maybe unwillingly. But then could unknowingly and unwillingly be together? Can you change without knowing and not like what you've become? Its amazing how the strong, confident, seemingly heartless you just transform into this mellow, down to earth women who cries at the drop of a hat. And all this happens without even realizing when, where, how all that happened. Wonder if this change is temporary. Wonder if the strong side is just tucked away in the corner waiting patiently for someone to use it. Wonder if the old me will ever be visible to myself again. Because in all these years lots have changed. Don’t really know if it was all for the good or not though. Maybe it was. Maybe it wasn’t. Only time can tell.
