Ocean within

There’s an ocean within
So deep I can’t tell
Rivers dancing together
Don’t know its heaven or hell

Every breeze is frozen
Cold waves sing no songs
A dumb struck silence
Seems time has stopped
There’s no ticking sound
no ringing bell
There’s an ocean within
So deep I can’t tell...

The blue-gray lines
From the horizon O’ dear
Keeps calling from beyond
but still I am here...
no song no joy
no breeze no smell
there’s an ocean within
so deep I can’t tell

A wretched ship sinks
leaving all sailors dead
caption’s promise stands broken
sad albatross said:
there’s an ocean all around
so deep I can’t tell
rivers dancing together
don’t know it’s heaven or hell

thanx a lot Divya....

ऐसे भी तो दिन आयेंगे

 ऐसे भी तो दिन आयेंगे, बिलकुल तनहा कर जाएँगे रोयेंगे हम गिर जाएँगे, ख़ामोशी में पछतायेंगे याद करेंगे बीती बातें ख़ुशियों के दिन  हँसती रातें...
