शिशिर का भोर / dawn in winter

उतना-सा प्रकाश
की अँधेरा दीखने लगे,
उतनी-सी वर्षा
की सन्नाटा सुनाई दे जाए;
उतना-सा दर्द की याद आए
की भूल गया हूँ,
भूल गया हूँ...

Just enough light
for darkness to show
Just enough rain
for silence to sound.
Just enough pain to remember
that I have forgotten,
I have forgotten...

- अग्येय, agyeya
from the same anthology as mentioned in the previous post.
