💔 Awaaz… Jo Yaadon Mein Kho Gayi :💔

“Awaaz dene wale aksar thak jaate hain… aur jab woh chup ho jaayein, tab kahani khatam ho jaati hai.”

💔 Awaaz… Jo Yaadon Mein Kho Gayi 💔

Arz Kiya hai… Ke…

Tujhe de raha hoon awaaz tadap kar mere dil ki gehrayi se,
Abhi tak meri awaaz nahi pohchi kya…?
Aisa lagta hai jaise meri maut ka intezaar ho raha ho…

Yaad hai mujhe…
wo pehli baar jab tune muskurakar mujhe dekha tha,
us ek pal ne meri poori zindagi ko matlab de diya tha.
Aur aaj…
main wahi insaan hoon,
par meri zindagi se matlab chala gaya hai.

Pehle meri awaaz pe tu muskura deti thi,
aaj main toot kar pukarta hoon
aur tu khamoshi bhi nahi todti…

Kitni ajeeb baat hai na…
jiski ek “haan” se zindagi sajti thi,
aaj uski ek “na” bhi naseeb nahi ho rahi…

Main aksar un galiyon se guzarta hoon
jahaan humne kabhi saath chalne ka khwaab dekha tha.
Har mod pe lagta hai tu mil jayegi,
har hawa ka jhonka lagta hai tera paighaam laaya hai…
par har baar…
sirf meri umeed hi toot kar zameen pe girti hai.

Meri awaaz ab sirf awaaz nahi rahi,
yeh ek adhura qissa ban chuki hai—
jo har raat likha jaata hai
aur har subah aansuon se mita diya jaata hai.

Kabhi apni aankhein band karke sochta hoon,
ke agar tu achanak mere saamne aa jaaye
toh kya kahunga…?
Shayad kuch nahi…
sirf ro padunga…
kyunki meri awaaz toh kab ki toot chuki hai.

Sach kahun toh…
ab darr lagta hai awaaz dene se bhi…
kyunki har baar jab jawab nahi milta,
toh lagta hai main apni hi nazron mein gir gaya hoon.

Aur phir ek ajeeb si baat hoti hai—
main phir bhi tujhe pukarta hoon…
jaise ek doobta hua insaan
aakhri baar hawa ko pakadne ki koshish karta hai.

Mujhe nahi pata tu kabhi samjhegi ya nahi…
par main aaj bhi wahi hoon,
usi mod par,
usi intezaar mein,
jahan tune mujhe chhod diya tha.

Aur agar meri awaaz aaj bhi tum tak nahi pohchi…
toh shayad ek din
meri khamoshi pohch jaaye…

Aur tab…
shayad tum ek pal ke liye ruk kar socho—
“Koi tha… jo mujhe toot kar pukarta tha…”
