Mirror

She puts on her best dress
and the shining red lipstick to impress
With matching jewellery to go
She readies herself to show.

She talks to herself, boastfully sings
Praising the image that she imagines
All women will be red and fuming
And men would ogle like dogs lavitating.

Happy in her own image she tip toes
But before she goes
Around she turns to admire
Herself in the mirror

Moments pass...
A crash echoes through the room
As the glasses suffer the doom
For she couldnt stand to suffer
The sight of the ugly mirror.

Ahadh

Tere bin kaise jiyunga nahi jaanta
Parr intezaar rahega tera qayamat takk.

Tumhe door takk doondenge meri nazren
Aas rahegi tumhari meri saansein doobne takk.

Katenge jo pal tumhari yaad mein
Unhe sajaaonga mai apni kabr takk.

Hai ye ahadh betaab ka tumse
Rahoge tum mere khayalon mein taa umr takk.

Kya Hua

Kya hua gar mayoos hai ghum-e-dil
Kahin tho koi chehra hasta hoga.

Kya hua jo sirf kaante hai daaman mein
Kahin tho koi gulshan mehakta hoga.

Kya hua jo sitare chod gaye andheron mein
Kahin tho koi diya roshan hua hoga.

Kya hua jo raahein hai akeli sooni
Kahin tho koi kafila badta hoga.

Kya hua gar jannat naseeb nahi betaab
Kahin tho koi darr khula hoga.
