In the realm of poetic expression, Abhishek Singh - Kutaj, writing under the name Kabr, brings forth a stirring piece titled "कब्र" in the Poetry category for the Poetry and Creative Writing Competition 2026. Through eloquent verses, Abhishek delves into a deep reflection on human emotions and the silence that sometimes engulfs us. His work invites readers to ponder the quietude of both tangible and intangible graves, urging a contemplation on life, death, and the spaces in between.

About the Work

"कब्र" resonates with a somber yet powerful theme, exploring the silent transformation of the living into metaphorical graves. The poem's mood is introspective, capturing the essence of unacknowledged pain and the solitude that follows. Abhishek skillfully weaves imagery and emotion, portraying a journey from vibrant life to a state of living death, where voices go unheard and cries for help remain unanswered.

कब्र

चाहे जितने आंसू बहाओ

या फूल चढ़ाओ

वो कब्रें है

कुछ नहीं बोलेंगी

कोई जवाब नहीं आएगा वहां से

कुछ इंसान भी

ऐसे ही हो जाते हैं

खामोश हो जाते हैं

जीते जी मर जाते है

फिर किसी से बात नहीं करती

वो जिंदा लाशें

क्योंकि

जब वो बात करते थे

किसी ने न सुना

जब वो चीखे दर्द से

किसी ने न सुना

कोई नहीं आया

उस घाव पे मरहम लगाने

किसी ने न सुनी फ़रियाद

फिर एक दिन

उनके अपनेआप में

सिमट जाने के बाद

आए लोग

सांत्वना देने नहीं

शिकायत करने

पूछने

क्यों चुप रहते हो

क्यों अकेले रहते हो

ऐसे क्यों हो तुम

तुम्हारा कुछ नहीं हो सकता

वाकई, सच में

उसका कुछ नहीं हो सकता

क्योंकि उसने काटा है

एक जिंदादिल इंसान

से

एक जिंदा लाश तक का सफ़र

और अब इंतजार है

कि कब मिलेगी वो कब्र

जहाँ लोग आयेंगे

आंसू बहाएंगे

फूल चढ़ाएंगे

और फिर

भूल जाएंगे।
