Ajnabi sur...........

Yesterday , I was feeling weary, tired and frustrated.I even did not realise how the time was passing and by the time, I started gathering my things to leave from lab, Darkness had blanketed surroundings.My feet were refusing to take another step , but had to keep a promise, So chal diye .
is thake shareer aur daghdha man ko le kar jab tak ghar pahunchi, urja jawab de chuki thi. But as I knocked the door, I found it opened and Himangi, a sweet innocent kid came from behind the door , just in a hope of startling me." Tum Darr gayi thi na?"
ab us bacchi ko koun samjhaye, jindagi mein akasmat hi itne surprises aa jaate hai, samay ki choukhat par, sahsa hi ki darna to bhool gayi hoon, haan kabhi kabhi vismit ho jaati hoon, kabhi baanhein khol kar swagat karti hoon, aur kuch shocking ghatit ho jaye to kabhi kamar kas kar kahti hoon" Aa gaye tum?" kabhi tham kar rah jaati hoon kinkartavyavimoodh ho, aur kabhi chounk kar kadam peeche hat jaate hain.haan, kabhi kabhi muskura bhi leti hoon par darna? darr to mano bhool gayi hoon.
Mon was sitting on the jhoola, humming something, eyes closed, so much in peace with herself that I sat there silently watching her. As she opened her eyes, She gave me the biggest grin , as she was caught in her act. Yes, She has left singing long back but still catches some time when no one is around , hummming or whispering as if not letting anyone know the notes and scale raising , the pitch changing with every word, as if she is afraid of displaying her pain.But I can see the pain floating in your eyes even if it can't speak, I can clearly feel it. Sometimes, i want to tell her, ki chal apne dard se kaho ki mere dard se kuch baatein kar le. tab shayad aapke swar aap ko ajnabi na lagein.
