We were just out for a walk,
spending time together .....
it was calm, it was cozy,
just one of those sweet, ordinary evenings.

And then, for no reason at all,
I looked up at the sky...
and there it was ,
a shooting star, gliding across the darkness.

Without a second thought,
I turned to him, pointed up .....
and in that exact moment,
we both saw it.

Just a blink,
but it felt like magic.
As if the universe paused
and gave us a memory to hold on to forever.

Maine anjaane mein uss insaan ko dukh de diya, jise main har pal khush dekhna chahti hoon… jise main har dard, har buraai se bachana chahti hoon. Par aaj, jise sabse zyada sambhalna tha, usi ke dil ko maine tod diya…

Kaash waqt ko palat sakti… uss ek pal mein ja kar apne aap ko rok leti, kuch kehne ya karne se. Lekin ab sab bekaar hai… der ho chuki hai.

Ab doosron ke saamne kaise kahun ke woh mera hai, jab uska apna ho kar maine hi uska dil dukhaya

Afsos hai… par afsos se kya woh dard kam hoga jo maine usse diya? Shayad nahi…

The movie was okay--- nothing too special.
But the real magic was having you sitting next to me,
pampering me with so much love and care.
That comfort added so many beautiful points to our date.

While kissing me, you kept softly whispering,
“I love you, I love you...”
I could feel the fear of losing me in your touch,
mixed perfectly with the happiness of having me by your side.
It was a moment I’ll always hold close.

"Main Kyun Ruki Hoon"

Kabhi agar tumhara dil chahe jaanna ki main kyun ruki hoon,
Toh suno---

Jis tarah meri aankhen tumhein dekhti hai,
Us nazar se maine kabhi khud ko bhi sheeshe mein nahi dekha.

Jis tarah main tumhein samajhne ki chahat rakhti hoon,
Woh utni gehri hai, Jitna kabhi main khud ko samajh nahi paayi.

Jitni baatein main tumse karti hoon,
Shayad utni meri zubaan pe hai bhi nahi.

Magar in sab se pare, Jo lamha sabse haseen tha---
Woh tha jab maine sirf itna kaha: "Mujhe rok lo na..."
Aur tumne kaha: "Hamesha ke liye ruk jao."

Bas usi pal se, Main ruki hoon...
Na waqt ke saath, Na lamhon ke saath...
Main ruki hoon sirf tumhare liye.
Hamesha... Hamesha ke liye.

-

Toh chalo,
Aaj ek din...
Zara dheere chala jaye,
Thoda ahista... thoda apne liye...
Jiya jaye.

***Pata nahi ye zindagi kahaan le ja rahi hai,
par jahan bhi le jaaye, main tayyar hoon saath chalne ko.
Main tayyar hoon us raaste ke liye jo meri kismat ne chuna hai,
kyunki chahe main maanu ya nahi, hota wahi hai jo likha gaya hai.

Toh bas, ab chal padungi un raahon par bina kisi sawal ke.
Safar mushkil toh zaroor hoga,
magar mera mann tayyar hai un chaukane wali manzilon ke liye.***

A Beautiful Man

I’ve got a beautiful man.
He listens to me when I need to talk,
Holds me when I feel like falling apart.
He loves me through my insecurities,
Pampers me when I’m hurting,
Hugs me tight when anxiety creeps in.
He talks me down when my thoughts go too far.

But who is he, really?

He’s my darling,
He’s my safe place.
My calm, my home.
He makes me believe in myself, Shows me the version of me I forgot existed.
He reminds me I’m capable,
That I’m beautiful---Even when I don’t see it at all.
He’s everything. The one I want to stand beside,
Take vows with, Say I do---with all my heart, loud and clear.

Main chahe duniya ke saare lafz likh doon,
Phir bhi mere dil ke zakham ko bayan nahi kar paungi.
Nahi kar paungi bayan un be-neend raatein,
Jo sirf neend aane ki khwahish mein poori raat guzar jaati hain.

Nahi kar paungi bayan un bechain si abhaas ko,
Jo mujhe raat din pareshan kar jaati hain.
Kya hai kahin koi aisa jahaan...
Jaha main khud se roothi na rahun...
Jaha main khud par garv mehsoos kar saku...

Kaash! Woh bachpan hi laut aaye,
Jahaan din bhar khel tha aur raat ko sukoon bhari neend.
Ab toh lagta hai sab kuch chhod kar
Kahin aisi jagah chali jaaun,
Jahaan door door tak koi aahat bhi
Mujhe na pukar sake,
Aur mai khud mein hi kahi kho jaaun---
bas khamoshi reh jaye .....

I see peace living in the corners of your eyes,
Like they’ve finally learned how to rest, how to rise.
Your laughter is so soft, like a song that knows my name,
And suddenly, the doubt doesn’t feel the same.

So I stayed---
Not because it’s easy, not because it’s clear,
But because loving you feels like home, even here.
Even in silence, even in maybe,
Even if you never say you need me,
You’re worth every quiet beat, every quiet prayer,
And I’ll keep loving you… just being your forever.

My Love,

This is my first Holi with you, and I can’t put into words how special it feels. Growing up, I never imagined myself covered in colors, laughing, and celebrating like this. But today, as I stand by your side, I see Holi through your eyes---the joy, the togetherness, the way it brings hearts closer.

I may come from a different faith, but love knows no boundaries. Watching you smile, feeling the happiness this festival brings, I realize that it’s not just about color---it’s about celebrating life, love, and the people who make it beautiful. And you, my love, make my world brighter than any color ever could.

Thank you for sharing this piece of your world with me. Today, I don’t just respect your festival---I cherish it, because it’s a part of you.
