Original Submission by meenakshi Sharma
तू एक बार आना…
तू एक बार आना,
भले ही कुछ पल ठहरकर वापस चले जाना।
फिर एक बार मुझको
दो-चार वादों का लिफ़ाफ़ा दे जाना।
इस बार भी मैं उसे खोलूँगी नहीं,
पिछले लिफ़ाफ़े का क्या किया, बोलूँगी नहीं।
तेरे जाने के बाद,
उसे थामे बैठूँगी तब तक,
तेरा छुआ महसूस होता रहेगा जब तक।
जब नम होने लगेगा वो मेरे मन की सीलन से,
तब तकिए के नीचे खिसका दूँगी धीरे से।
रात के अँधेरे में,
रह-रहकर मेरा मन
फिर से तेरे वादों में सिमटना चाहेगा।
इन बिन पढ़े वादों को
जब पुराने सारे बिन खुले ख़तों के साथ रखूँगी,
तो शायद फिर से मन कहेगा,
अब और अधूरे वादों से मुझे अपना घर नहीं सजाना।
पर सुबह फिर न जाने क्यों
दिल कहेगा,
तू एक बार आना,
भले ही कुछ पल ठहरकर वापस चले जाना।
