You may see the elegance at times
But you don't know the stubbornness behind it.

You may see the stupidity at times
But you don't see how I handle my anger.

You see the brave soul inside
But you don't know the tender heart which cried a thousand miles.

You see the sadness of my eyes
You cannot see the spark of it with you.

You see my calming waters
You don't know how they drown us both.

Love is

As common as an everyday.
As special as an everyday.

-

तू मुझे अब बस किश्तों में ही याद है ।
कभी धुँध से उभरता हुआ,
कभी बर्फ़ पर लेटा हुआ।
कभी रज़ाई ओढ़ कर मुँह पलट कर पढ़ता हुआ,
कभी किसी की नक़ल उतारता हुआ।
कभी गर्मी की धूप में अकड़ता हुआ,
तो कभी सर्दी में ठिठुरता हुआ ।
कभी बिना मतलब जलता हुआ,
कभी सबको ग़ुस्से से ताड़ता हुआ ।
कभी मुझे रूलाता हुआ,
तो कभी झगड़ते झगड़ते हँसाता हुआ।
तू मुझे अब किश्तों में ही याद है ।

Never go deep waters with a person who stays only in shallow waters.

-

You'd asked me if you could be my universe?
May be my love wasn't enough for you.
My words seemed irrelevant.
My tears were artificial.
My promises looked fake.
You knew or
May be you never desired to know.
May be you never wanted such a strong love.
Fortunately/ Unfortunately,
My universe did revolve around you.

-

Him: "I'd love if your universe revolved around me".
Her: "And why would I do that? "
If I'd make you my universe, would you stay?

-

As I grow up, I get heavy.
Not by body.
By heart.
It's the heart which gets heavier.
Not by bones.
By memories.
And not by blood.
By words.

-

Would you keep the fire burning even after a storm?

-

Ever mourned for a person
Who is still alive?

-

Did I love you because the weather was good?
Definitely, yes.
Because the weather was sunny,
Because the weather was rainy,
Because the weather was foggy,
Because the weather was cold.
You radiated.
And I fall into the void.
