Silence..


                                                          2009 image,Himalayas,Kashmir

Silence and Solitude
 are too sacred..
Misinterpreted,
Silence was mistaken
for not talking
and
 Solitude for isolation..
In between the meanings
Vacuum got created
and 
Oneness dissolved in spaces!
~~payal~~

सुनो,कहा था ना मैंने?

सुनो,
ऐसे ही थोड़ी कहती थी मैं 
कि तुम नहीं समझोगे!

कितने ख़याल थे
छुपे  हुए किसी कोने में,
कुछ अधखिले,
कुछ मुरझाये,
जज़्बातों  की तरह।

आज बरसों बाद, 
उन्ही ख्यालों को समेटते हुए, 
उलझे हुए  
इस कहानी के धागे में,
 शब्दों को पिरोने
की नाकाम कोशिश
करती  हूँ।

एक मुस्कुराती हुई नज़्म 
का इंतज़ार है।
उदासी की लकीरों के पीछे
से झांकती नम आँखें
अचानक झंझोर कर
जगा जाती हैं ।
आजकल कुछ बदल गया है,
 मैं ऐसी ही तो थी!

सुनो,
कहा था ना मैंने?
कुछ दबी सी आवाज़ में?
बस इतना ही याद है मुझे!
~~ पायल ~~ 

shhhh....

shhhh....
Let's talk less
This season is not favourable
The flowers burn
In the passionate fire
And the acid rains..

a gush of memories flow
as reminders of the lost magic

sweet poison..
penalties of the solid earth
sublime bond
stretched and snapped......
hopeless hopes
an escapist's destiny..

Let's understand
beyond the realms
of the truths and lies,
far beyond
the rights and the wrongs..

That its' life!! 

Let's listen to
the language of the birds
and the silent noise of
the heartbeats and
the breathlessness..

In this silence
feel the feeling..
that speaks
through the numbness
behind the closed doors
~~payal~~

Short poems




A Drop
Dreamy dew
Or hazy tear?
-----
Acceptance
A healer
Break-free!
-----
Waves
The feelings
Screams of stillness
-----
Truth.
Individual perceptions.
And some call it God!
~~payal~~

MOMENTS..


Immersed in the feel
Flipping through the pages
A few verses irresistible
Made me forget myself..
.
It was pure pain
Not merged with pleasure
Contemplating,I feel it
While sitting in leisure..
.
Past is best forgotten
Silently,I let go..
Mixture of varied emotions
Confused state of mind..
.
Now in this moment
As I become you
Be still and allow
And dance in ecstasy..
~~payal~~


वो पल..

वो पल भी अजीब थे
वक़्त थम गया था
ओस से भीगी पत्तियों पर
कोई नगमे लिख गया था 

नवजीवन का प्रकाश 
धीमे स्वर का आभास 

कुछ न होने से
कुछ होना अच्छा
सुखद एहसास दिलाती
कुछ यादें ही सही
~~पायल~~
