لوحِ اشق میری آنکھوں سے انجان نہیں
کیا تُو اب بھی اپنی بیوفائی پر پشیمان نہیں

جو ہوا کرتا تھا پھولوں کا گلستان کبھی
کیا اب وہ میرا دل کفِ دست میدان نہیں

محفلِ غم میں رقص کرتا میرا دل
جامِ رنج کا میرے سِوا کوئی رندان نہیں

بڑی بےحسی سے قتل کیا میرا دِل
اب تُو میرے لیے قابلِ اطمینان نہیں

اُن سے کہو بھج گئے چراغ میری محفل کے
اب عشق کرنا زیرِ فرمان نہیں

I wish to meet you once
Beneath the gleam of moon
and the shyness of stars
To see in your eyes and dive deep into your thoughts
To hold your hands and feel the affliction in your veins
To kiss you and give you all the senses of heaven
To embrace you in my arms and let you fix all your sorrows into me
~•~
How can I endure seeing you fighting for you
How can I stay calm while yearning to hush all the screams of your heart
How to tell you that your pain is my excruciation
How to tell you that in your smile is my every moment of happiness
How should I make you stop thinking about the things which are out of our control
How should I make you know that your the story I never want to have an end
Nobody can see it
Nobody can feel it
The love that I have for you
Nobody knows that you're the beauty in my pain
Nobody knows that you're my sweetest escape !

When the gale of self actualization hits you , you find that people who said partners , friends or any other relationship except the one you have with yourself isn't a forever thing , were claiming the truth. You come to the point where you start to comprehend that no one will remember what you did for their sake . At a certain point everyone leaves you , never empty handed but with letdowns , heartbreaks , betrayals , apprehension , self doubts and much more . They leave with a lot of animosity buried inside your head which you feel will never end . The thickness of dejection pierces on your skin but you stand still and dissemble like you don't feel anything. And at that stage tears don't leave your eyes and your heart does not thud when detrimental flashbacks batter on it !!

Ever noticed ?
How disturbed are the souls that constantly smile
How mystic are the words that sunk under the silence
How dense are the words which were polished by tears
How rejoiced are the hearts which beat in someone's memory

How scary are people , who question my worth and mock my vanity
How pleasent is the paper which consumes my emotions and adorns them as words
How violent is the world around me , which disturbs the calmness of my soul and protests against my pique
How peaceful is the world inside me which soothes the
blaze of my other half

Oh people,
Will you ever be satisfied? Whether I'm six feet above the soil or six feet below your feet ?

Adhoora hai har gham , har khushi na mukkamal kuin hai ,
Jisse seencha khwabon mai raat din , woh aaj aankhun se ojhal kuin hai ?

Mai khafa nahi tujhse , tujhse koi shikwa bhi nahi ,
Phir bhi tere naa hone ka gila musalsal kuin hai ?

Adavato'n mai guzri saari dastaan humari ,
Mohabbat ka yeh afsana sabse afzal kuin hai ?

Mere mai kade k chirag bujh he gaye aakhir ,
Yeh hawa mai aaj afsurdgi ki halchal kuin hai ?

Har saans karz li tera naam wird karne k khaatir ,
Har gham meri ankhon mai ab mufassal kuin hai !

-

I hope that I heal from the scars you left open and i hope that I stop to dream of a lifetime with you !

Meri har shab muntazir thi jiski , woh tanha mujhe uski dehleez pe chhod gaya ;

Jiski aankhun se numaaya tha mera sukoon , mera woh qaraar na jaanay kahan kho gaya ;

Mai rota hun raat bhar jiske firaaq mai ,
Mai guzarta hun ghadiyan jiske ishtiyaq mai ,
Mai jee raha hun filhaal issi itifaaq mai ,
Ki mera woh yaar kisi aur ka ho gaya !

-

Perhaps my love was a mistake,
Having you just feels like recieving alms .
Who ever thought that I will not be enough for you , ever ?
I never was the one you wanted nor the one you needed .
Now that the matter of concern is that I can't pull myself out of this illusion even I have everything so clear infront of me .

-

Tere mukarnay k baad bhi tera intizaar maine kar liya tha ,
Meri jaan bina sonche tum par aitbaar kar jo liya tha ;

Bezaar nigahun mai jhalaktay hain bikharay khwaab kai'e ,
Bekhabar meri har nazar ne tujhe apna nigaar kar jo liya tha ;

Dil mai shor nahi lab par bhi khamoshi hai ,
Mere veeranay ne sunsaan bahaar ko kar he liya tha ;

Rajnish nahi aadavat nahi ab kuch nahi baaki ,
Tune toh meri mojudgi par bhi afsoos zahir kar liya tha .

Teri afsurdgi se koi waqif nahi مریم ,
Tune gham ko he apni qismat karaar kar jo liya tha .

~ It's so brave of me
that how I bear it to see,
How my faults are emphasized
but how my achievements are minimised,

It's so courageous of me
that how I stand it to see ,
How my tears are ignored
and malicious words are roared ,

It's so daring of me
that how I suffer to see ,
How my screehes are supressed
and my silence isn't worth being expressed . ~
