Been a while since I cried,
and I remember the last time I did,
it comes back to me, that night
when everything felt stupid
I felt the lingering darkness around
and how it kept growing on me,
In the moment, I was left astound
as to why I was sobbing loudly at 3.
There were some reasons that I knew
and there were some I did not.
Were those my failures piercing me through,
Or something else I haven't sought?
Tears kept rolling down the cheeks
and the feeling just made me restless.
I remember how I couldn't breathe
and how the night looked so endless.
I couldn't move, I couldn't speak,
I didn't feel like myself anymore.
I felt so alone and so damn weak,
ended up curling on the floor.
And now the horrors had crept in,
I kept my eyes so tightly shut
that I could see myself from within,
every scar, every wound, every cut.
I tried so hard and opened my eyes
just to make sure I was alive still.
It felt like I could never get up and rise
giving in to that cold, slow kill.-
The Crescent Moon
It wasn't the usual day for me,
I was sad and everything
was quiet after the sunset.
I thought of the moon,
and how seeing it full and bright
makes me feel alive again.
I rushed to the roof to look at it,
and the breeze made me calm.
I looked up at the moon,
only to find it incomplete too.
I smiled and I thought,
it will be full after some evenings
and just then realized
how I can be the moon too.
Even though it wasn't full,
I still loved the crescent moon.
It looked at me and I did too,
and just started wondering,
how people love me when
I am so incomplete and
how I need to light their lives up
being the full moon they love.-
आया करो लेकर अपनी मायूसियां हमारे पास
कि हम उन्हें खुशियों में बदल सकें।
तुम भी पोंछना आंसू मेरे,
ऐसी तो हमारी कोई शर्त नहीं।-
Put up facades,
I won't resist,
but let me take 'em down
when you know nothing
of what's real.-
बहुत रह लिए जुदा हम अब
आओ कुछ पल साथ गुजारेंगे,
बहुत देख ली झूठी अच्छाइयां
आओ एक दूसरे की खामियां नकारेंगे।
Bohot reh liye judaa hum ab
Aao kuchh pal sath guzarenge,
Bohot dekh li jhuti acchaiyaan
Aao ek dusre ki khaamiyaan nakaarenge.-
बहुत रह लिए जुदा हम अब
आओ कुछ पल साथ गुजारेंगे,
बहुत देख ली झूठी अच्छाइयां
आओ एक दूसरे की खामियां नकारेंगे।-
कहते हैं वो मुझसे कि कभी ना बदलना,
जिनकी फ़ितरतें सौ देखी हैं मैंने।-
Trying to fix them
can all go in vain.
A ruined person can
neither get any better
nor any worse.-
We were never distant,
We were just so
close to each other
that the love blinded us until
we couldn't find it anymore.-
Love is too innocent to unlove,
And so true to be deemed false,
So fall in love like the falling stars
And let them fall for your flaws.-
