The Bridge Across Forever

I belong to twilight,
in the silence
between worlds,
where things
are always arriving,
ending,
beginning,
without names.

I belong to dawn
in the stillness
between breaths,
where things
are always leaving,
dying,
being born,
without a whisper.

I belong
where nothing belongs,
only this life,
this body,
the bridge across forever
now.

इस मोड़पे मैं क्या करूँ?
छोड़ दूँ तुम्हें या बाँध लूँ?
इस तन में तन्हा उधार है
आखिर जीवन से कैसे जुदा रहूँ?

soliloquy



words 
come to me
in a poem
like a river 
flowing
to the ocean
somewhere
beyond,
a hopeless soliloquy
of a heart
finding its way
into oblivion.

just one tear

just one tear
finds its way
crawling
to the call of a heart
steeped in love
exploding
into the vagaries
of this stillness
devouring
every thought 
of you.
