Prisoner of words

Abound by the words I am
Of its fettering shackles
Confined is my expression
In the cells of sentences

Story can I not tell
In paragraphs and chapters
When my expression in enslaved
By the words and sentences

Waqt

waqt tham sa gayaa tha chalte chalte
ghadi ki sui jaise so si gayi thi
rakkhe jab kaan maine uske sine pe
saanse uski jaise tham si gayi thi

kya saanse aakhri apni waqt ne leli thi?
alas
nahi,
ghadi ki spring bas unwind ho chuki thi
