being silent with you was all the poetry i ever needed.

-

write yourself another life if you have to

-

if you have to second guess and be in the dark, you're worth better

-

I loved you like a poet loves a poem.

-

I found my way on cracked sidewalks and followed a different road.

Do I still remember him? they asked
I burst out into a laughter
I knew he was a poem I could hardly write up in ecstasy; love irony they say
His smile,
witty and naive as a kid's milk moustache
His eyes,
catastrophic; my fragile heart
His palm,
warmest closet to hide in my insecurities,
His words,
born to play the rhythm of my soul
His love,
tender as a cool breeze on sunburn
His arms,
narcotic to my soul; a lifeline
His ego,
fragile as a dandelion tufts,
Sigh!
those hands that he stamped on me is tattooed right in my gut
but anger is not something I would serve him but pity,
Pity the power he held on my love,
The urge he had to prove "he is the man in our relationship"
His restless need to whisper "he knew everything and I better relax"
Those words,
Exactly the ones I mistook for your guarding love and selfless care,
He knew to play it well,
I learned to paddle in his reflections but reflecting on mine burned him always,
I exploded into laughter again; breathless

चलना जरूरी है , रुक जाना नहीं।
रास्ते पर चल कर, तुम पछताना नहीं।।

आशा की किरण हर सुबह मिलेगी तुमसे।
सुबह सुबह के सूरज को भूल जाना नहीं।।

निरन्तर चलना है ग़र पहुचना है मंज़िल तक।
रुकावटों से डर कर रुक जाना नहीं।।

जो पहुच ना सके मंजिल तक और थक गए।
हार ना मान लेना, अपनी यात्रा को भूल जाना नहीं।।

एक भी कदम व्यर्थ नहीं है तुम्हारा।
ग़र पास नहीं मंजिल के तो मंजिल से दूर भी नहीं।।

।।रुकावटों से डर के रुक जाना नहीं।।

LOVE WAITS....
When love waits before arriving
The intensity of patience to
Achieve the love of life increases.
The waiting makes people
Hunger for love, making
Them mad each and every day.
They enjoy every single incident
They spend with their life love.
Those love moments are sweet,
Making them to respect the partner more
Try out your patience and
Give some more chances to
Work on the out coming in themselves.
Waiting love is the life long
Love providing more understanding
To know each other
Even more of those characters
For which their heart fell.

Aaine jaisa Aks apna dekha ke,
Sheeshe jaisa dil mera tod gaye,.

Wah zalim teri adakari pe,
Wah zalim teri adakari pe,
Tum Humse humara kirdar mod gaye.
Murid bana ke humko apna,
Ek khaali mayan chod gaye.

Aaine jaisa Aks apna dekha ke,
Sheeshe jaisa dil mera tod gaye.

Sat in a room calm and dark,
Swinging of the fans was the only thing heard.

Lost in the depth of thoughts, she lay,
Contrasting pictures of yesterday and today came her way.

When her eyes turned watery, and the nose turned red,
But her cheeks were dry, like one stale bread.

Realizing it was never her loss,
She walked graciously to shine and reign.

This is the time when she stood up strong,
Thanking almighty for what earlier seemed to have gone wrong.
