Failure Poet Ki Nakaam Koshish

Bombay ke local train mein akele travel karte waqt
Tumhari "too much" yaad aati hai


Kabhi Worli sea face pe khade sad songs gungunaaye
Toh yeh hont tumhara naam gaane mein jod deti hain


Crowded raste mein chalte chalte koi tumsa dikh gaya
Toh heart ki ek beat automatically miss ho jaati hai


Lagte ho tum uss favorite Hindi film ke hero
Arre, wohi picture jo TV par baar baar aati hai!


Roz subaah office jaane se pehle
Yeh brainless ladki tumhara manpasand color zaroor try karti hai


Waise "just FYI" uss special kurte se "till date"
Khushboo tumhari aati hai


Jab jab aata hai koi khushi ka chance
Toh definitely tumhari company ki zarurat mehsoos hoti hai


Jab bathroom mein baithe hum akele roye
Toh aankhein tumhara face un damp deewaron par khojti hai


Kitni baar delete kiya mobile se tumhara number
Par kambakht memory se delete hi nahi hoti hai


Caprioshka peeyun chahe whiskey
Talli hote hi doston ko saikdo baar wohi hamari boring love story arz ki jaati hai


Apni shaadi pe tumne kyun nahi bulaya
Iski shikayat tumhari di hui engagement ring karti rehti hai


Do alzolam khaane ke baad bhi jab neend na aaye
Toh thaki aankhein sara blame tumpe daal deti hain


Tumhari updates facebook pe padhe
Toh bevkuf mind unmein apna koi chupa mention zabardasti create karti hai


Apni best friend ko har hafte ek baar call karte
Kyunki receiver pe "chai" ya "coat" maangte huye tumhari awaaz zaroor sunne mein aati hai


Ditch kiya tumne mujhe, dil toda aur khoob sara dard diya
Par aaj tak meri har poem tumhare baare mein hi hoti hai


Na hoke bhi iss qadar meri life mein shaamil ho tum
Ke yeh failure poet lafzon ke zariye 'past' ko 'present' banane ki nakaam koshishein karti hai

  2. Amazing... The choice of words, the amalgamation of English is so natural and it doesn't look enforced at all... Although this poem is a serious one but the use of words reminded me of Dr. Tushar from Laughter Champs season 1... The words flow into the hearts of the reader effortlessly... Outstanding...

  5. Mamlu.. Check it...

    ‎Arjya... Mamlu... Chk out....

    Baar Baar Zikr Tera Khayalon Mein Kiya Humne...
    Thoda Thoda Haste Haste Bahut Aansoon Roya Humne...
    Kabhi Kabhi Deja-Vu mein Un Yaadon Ko Sanjoya Humne...
    Chup Chup Rehna Sake so Lafzon Ko Zariya Banaya Humne...
    Saath Saath Na Chala Tu, Haath Na Thama Tumne...
    Durr Durr Rehke Phir Bhi Sada Tujhe Mehsoos Kiya Humne...
    Hairan Hoon Main Aye Sangdil Sanam,
    Kya Khoob Chaha Tumne!!! Kya Khoob Chaha Humne...
