S.I.L.E.N.C.E.

I have tried and succeeded,
In getting used to the noise.
I have tried and succeeded,
In getting all notes right.
I have tried and succeeded,
In hearing you all out.
I have tried and succeeded,
In tuning to what you don’t say out loud.
I have tried and succeeded,
In hearing your whispers among shouts.
But I am still trying,
To hear your silence out loud.
I have got all your words figured right,
It's your silent bits that are a fight.
If only you would sit with me,
And say nothing at all.
So that we could hear each other's silence,
And finally let all those sound barriers fall.

चेहरा मेरा था निगाहें उसकी
ख़ामोशी में भी वो बातें उसकी
मेरे चेहरे पे ग़ज़ल लिखती रहीं
शेर कहती हुई आँखें उसकी......
