Khudkhush

Bas ek lamhe ka zhagda tha,
daro diwar par aise chamake se giri aawaz
jaise kanch girta hai.
har ek sai me gai udti hoyee jalti hoi garje
nazar main, baat main, laheje main, soc aur saans ke andar.
lahu hona tha ek rishte ka so wo ho gaya usdin.
usi aawaz ke tukde utha kar farsh se woh shabd,
Kisii ne kaat li nabze,
naki aawaz tak kuch bhi.
huh.. ki koyee jaag na jaaye..
bas.. ek lamhe ka zhagda tha.
