आखिर तक वो बस बातें करता था
कुछ तो कमी थी, क्यों बातें करता था
नज़र में उसकी अजब हसरत होती थी
जब वो अपने कल की बातें करता था

Me : Oooooo nice! Is that how you twerk?
Home : Sorry! Come again.
Me : Twerk. The shaking. You are twerking right?
Home : Run idiot. That ain't me. That's what you call an

(Continued in the caption)-
"I feel stranded outside, naked,
on a very long winter night
ever since you went
alongwith my warmth."
