Those unfamiliar familiar places


I wheeled down the South campus Canteen.. for the one last time,
I was surprised how everything just happened in the blink of an eye,
It was just two years ago.. I walked into this canteen for the first time,
Everything seemed so delicious.. and now I find nothing eat,

I thought that there was a time when everything looks new,
I was so happy to be the part of DU again,
But now even the walls of my classroom tells stories to me,
Everything about literature is filled into these classroom desk,

Every place you visit for the first time has a new story to tell,
And if you keep visiting that place often you create your own stories,
The smell of a place may seems odd to you,
But in no time the smell becomes a fragrance to you,

It is strange how a strange place becomes familiar to you,
And when you become familiar.. then that place becomes a home to you...

Meri pehchan hai kya, Kisi ki beti kisi ki behen hu me, Meri pehchan hai kya, Ek viklang shareer hu me, Meri pehchan hai kya, Wo kehte hai parai hu me, Meri pehchan hai kya Wo kehte sab par bojh hu me. Me bahut likhti hu, Par wo meri pehchan nhI, Me apne liye sochti hu Par wo meri pehchan nhI, Jo wo kehte h, Wo meri pehchaan bn jaata h, Jo me kehti hu, Wo bas unsunaa sa ho jata h, Meri pehchan hai kya? Koi mujhse ye sawaal krta nhi Meri pehchan hai kya? Mujhe koi viklang kehne se darta nhi, Haan hu me viklang, Par mere sapne apaahiz nahi Haan hu me viklang, Par mere iraade apaahiz nahi, Wo kehte h ki tum aise kyu chalti ho? Wo kehte h ki tum aise kyu bolti ho, Sawaal p saawal h . Jawaab deke thak chuki hu, Jaao baatado inko ki me inke liye jee ke thaak chuki hu, Padhti hu, sochti hu aur likhti hu me, Ab Yahi meri pehchan hai Na aurat hu na viklang hu, Ek lekhakika hu me..... Ab Yahi meri pehchan hai..

The Long Walk

Pulling up myself up the floor, I was 14.. when I learned to walk, Walking without support was a family dream, That I didn't thought could ever come true, I sat there.. wondering how could people walk.. without falling back?, I sat here.. there.. Everywhere because I couldn't walk, I used to believe that walking was a gift .. that God forgot to shower on me, So.. I learned to compensate... Compensate the lack of walking, As walking was an unachievable goal, For someone with 60% disability, To the sense of listening and observing, When a kid first learn to walk.. He wants to discover something new, So did I when you learn to observe, I observed how people treated me, Some with love and some with ignorance, I realize people see me differently, I realize that they don't see my thought process, They just see the physical me, Pulling up myself up the floor, I was 14.. when I learned to walk, I could then just see walls, Walls that I could hold on, To move
