नामुख़ातिब

ज़ुल्फ़ों से झाँकती, मुस्काती, झुकती पलकें
सिर्फ ख़याली है सब, मुख़ातिब कुछ न बचा

तस्वीर अब एक भी नहीं मेरे पास तुम्हारी।

Droopy Eyes, Smile through a Veil of Tresses,
Not a single Picture of Yours I have Anymore.


मुख़ातिब - Face to Face, here it is interpreted as to 'be present or exist in reality'.

  1. You really painted a picture there in the first line.

    I suppose pictures are not as important after all. So often, we forget to see when we see through the lens, with the assurance that the picture will remain forever. If the option was revoked sometimes, we would start seeing, remembering, again.
