पोकळी

 

                                                                        प्रवासाला  निघाल्यावर ,

                                                                        एखादी  गोष्ट ,

                                                                        विसरल्याची  जाणीव  व्हावी,

                                                                        चुकल्या-चुकल्यासारखं,

                                                                        काहीतरी  अपुरं  वाटावं,

                                                                        तसं  काहीसं ,

                                                                        मलाही  होऊ  लागलंय ,

                                                                       

                                                                        कुठे  निघालोय  मी  ?

                                                                        काय  विसरलोय  ?

                                                                        हि  पोकळी  कसली  ?

                                                                        प्रश्न  मनाशी  गर्दी  करतात...

                                                                        आसमंत  अंधारून  जातो ...

                                                                        अन्

                                                                        लख्कन  वीज  चमकावी ,

                                                                        तशी  तुझी  आठवण  होते.

                                                                        अन्

                                                                        प्रकाशमान होते   ,

                                                                        ती  जीवघेणी  पोकळी ...
