To Say or Not to Say


maine kuchh kaha aur usne kuchh kaha nahi
bas yahi gum hai aur to kuchh hua nahi

aisa nahi ki usne sunke unsuna kar diya mujhe
bas maine jo mehsus kiya usne kabhi kiya nahi

dil ki baat batakar uska bharosa to jeeta maine
magar ab apne aap par bharosa mujhe raha nahi

use masoom kahu laparwah kahu ya zalim kahu
woh meri baat smajhkar bhi jo samjha nahi

chand roz guzar jaane do woh bhul jayega use
chhoti si dil ki baat thi koi lamba vakiya nahi

jo dil toota ho kabhi kisi ki khamoshi se
woh dil kisi ke alfazo se kabhi juda nahi

For things that werent' left unsaid but were certainly avoided or left unheard.

  10. So finally you published your gazal..ok on the blog not like what i have been telling you since when i know you can put your thoughts out in such a nice way you know a book or at least a collection of small poetries..but still you have taken it out i am glad..and it's really good like somebody who really has a deep thinking. Coming to the idea of the gazal..i undstd it like you wanted to express it for somebody you know..but why i think there is confusion about proper communication i mean if and only if it is a real life situation on which you have written it...still..for your writing skills i liked it...
