Koi Milaa Thaa! Poem by Parul Agarwal

Zindagi kii raha mein chalte chalte
yun hi koi mil gaya thaa

saath mein saathi bhi thaa
phir bhi na jaane koi kyun
yun hii dil mein bus gaya thaa...

thaama tha meraa haath, yeh kehte hue
khushiyon ki saugaat lootayegaa woh mujhpar...

Khushiyaan itnii mere daaman mein bhar diin
sametenaa mushkil ho gaya
Itnii mohabbat kabhi kissii ne karii bhi toh naa thi...

Ek tarafh saathi, toh doosri tarafh mohabbat..
Zindagi kaa safar aasan hoo bhi toh kaisey..?
Rishton kii majbooriyaan, aapni pakad majboot kartii
Toh mohabbat karti bekaraar, sabh bandhan tod dene ko..

Sochaa thaa, Zindagi ki rahaa par
usse milne ke baad
raahein aasaan aur khushgavaar ho jayengi
lekin raasta toh aur bhi katdhin ho gaya thaa...

Rishton ko nibhayaa jaye, yaa
Mohabbat ke rang mein dooba jaye?
Zindagi ki rahaa mein chalte chalte
yun hi koi mil gayaa thaa.....
