लाल-लाल डोरों वाली आँखें
जो सदा चुराई जाएँ
मुंह खुले तो न सांस निकले
ना बोल
और आँसू?
भादों की बरसात से
मन
बावरा
और दिमाग?
गाफ़िल
अभी-अभी
अचानक अहसास हुआ कि
तुम से मिलने तक
एकतरफा इश्क
कभी हुआ ही नहीं था मुझको
Eyes
red from weeping
and blank
from wondering.
Lips
that neither sigh nor part
A heart
that holds too much
and a head that holds
Nothing.
You, darling, are my first
one-sided love
A rite of passage
Belated, but not
beleaguered.
Eventually
All seasons come.
This one did, too.
This poem was co-created while discussing unrequited love with a friend who started off as a colleague.
Leading to the creation of a meme and another post for this blog. :)
