साँस लेना भी कैसी आदत है
जीये जाना भी क्या रवायत है
कोई आहट नहीं बदन में कहीं
कोई साया नहीं है आँखों में
पाँव बेहिस हैं, चलते जाते हैं
इक सफ़र है जो बहता रहता है
कितने बरसों से, कितनी सदियों से
जिए जाते हैं, जिए जाते हैं
जीये जाना भी क्या रवायत है
कोई आहट नहीं बदन में कहीं
कोई साया नहीं है आँखों में
पाँव बेहिस हैं, चलते जाते हैं
इक सफ़र है जो बहता रहता है
कितने बरसों से, कितनी सदियों से
जिए जाते हैं, जिए जाते हैं
आदतें भी अजीब होती हैं|
Dreamless. Meaningless. Clueless.
Over and over again, this life brings me to a halt out of nowhere. Some kind of pattern, I have started noticing. One moment, the life is going with all good routine, you get habituated with it, feel safe, relaxed and then boom!! Something just pulls you back and holds you for a moment, days or weeks. All of a sudden you are again at the same very place. An absolute zero. In the middle of nowhere. This is the time when you think and you think. Who am I? where am I? and why am I running like everyone? Is it worth it? Is this what I REALLY want? The brain starts struggling with surplus thoughts and emotions, tussle starts between left and the right one and even if the right should be right, logic prevails all and yet again you are left with no choice but to conceal n crush it to somewhere deep inside so that you can carry on again, just without perceiving anything further.

I must say..a very beautiful presentation of your inner conflict..It actually does feel sometimes that we are pushed to do what we are doing rather than doing it on our will..We are actually compulsed to do many things in our life be it earning our living or other basic needs..but its good at times to think over the real meaning of life, it doesn't matter watever part of brain makes you do that..meanwhile are you sure you mean "LEFT" by left??;)
