Some sway
from their purpose.
Some stay
true to their calling.-
वो केहते हैं मकतूब किसे
इस क़दर जो मिलना था हमें,
पोशीदा ज़िंदगी में इक रोशनी
ये फसाना लिखना ही था उन्हें।-
مکتوب آپکے نام لکھے کچھ لکھے بغیر
سب کچھ کہا ہے ہم نے کچھ کہے بغیر-
May be all that I did, was out of love.
May be I didn't show it on my face.
May be I acted up cool.
May be I didn't want to look fool..
(like some crazy lover)
May be my love wasn't reciprocated.
May be I wasn't meant for you.
'May be' is your favourite escape.
May be I still do love you.
May be you got hitched to someone else.
May be love doesn't holds a greater place.
May be you didn't look deep in your heart
Gasping for some air...
May be I never made it to your priority list.
May be you never realised your one true love!
May be this looks like a destined end.
May be this. May be that.
May be my dreams weren't hallucinations.
May be love wasn't unreal - like you, like me.
Did you meet your authentic self?
Did you? May be!!-
We two have been very different in our choices.
Amidst all disparities, polarities, and imbalances, you have always chosen 'The family'.
Always believing that's your safe place.
I, on the contrary, had a very normal childhood.
Yet, I have always chosen a world, outside my 'defined' family.
A place, I always believed, I never belonged.
Abandonment is an issue, we both faced.
You chose to stick around your folks, out of that craving for love, appreciation.
I chose to eventually, walk away.
Because, I had had enough disappointments.
I grew weary of those unsaid chances, I gave them.
Wrong or right - does it matter?
We simply made our choices.
I still love you, though.-
It is not necessary, that you would love me the same way I do.
It is not necessary, you would think about me the same way I do.
It is not necessary.
It is not obligatory.
To have an equally reciprocated love, is a very rare phenomenon.
Doesn't happen usually.
When it happens, one should simply rejoice and be grateful about it.
It's like sighting some orcas across the horizon while sailing across the ocean.
I did not expect that you would love me back.
I only expected that you would clearly tell me how you feel, so that, I would know how much to give you.
One thing you also know, that my love is precious, and my time is limited, to be wasted away.-
I miss you.
But there's nothing I wish more.
There's nothing I seek.
There's nothing I do for you.
There's nothing I do for us.
There's nothing I explain.
There's nothing I expect.
It is my defeat.-
