जो हम काफ़िर हुए,
तो तुम खुदा बन बैठे।

Death is the only one
worth waiting for...

-

You and me
Withered away with wind
Failure and reign
Heartbreak and pain
Washed away with rain
Memories of us killing slowly again
All we need is us
Just need us to hold onto us
You and me
Falling into the circle of charade
Walking and tumbling
Crawling and crumbling
Stepped upon till we're dead
Asking on to every step we take
"What are we looking for in this world?"
All we need is us
Just need us to hold onto us
You and me
Against all
Laughing and crying,
Juggling and struggling,
Losing and failing,
Bending and breaking,
Yet standing tall,
All we need is us.
Just need us to hold onto us.

-

The handful of times
Where I've encountered
Handful of people who
Caught my fancy
Handful of memories
Which has left me
Contend and withered
At the same time,
Handful of path
Which made me wonder
Right is wrong, or wrong is right,
The handful of emotions
Which I'm grateful and fathomed
At the same time.
Again

"love"
It's everywhere
And
It's nowhere
Yet
We seek it.

-

With wafting fragrance
Came an angelic voice
Waking us all from the
Deep slumber of technology
"Put down your phones, the food is ready"
And like a troop
we all followed that call unimpeachably
The commander standing in the kitchen,
Handing us the plates, looked at us smiling
Wait what? smiles? Oh no, never!
Oh she was handing us the plate
Along with standard insult of all time
"Phone me se hi kha lete"
And we all sheepishly smiled "maa"
And this is the home.
I have ever known.
"My maa"
And with passing food and
Continuous Complaining and
Accusing glaring eyes
We were at home.
Yes, I'm at home.

PROLOGUE
-------@-------
Unimpeachable desire to throw myself
in the arms of my bed is the only solace I have now...
It's been 8 days since I saw my friend,
although we do video calls regularly
but it's so hard to see
your friend lying down on
that bed frail and fragile ready to fade away into
nothingness it's heartbreaking...

With every passing second
I couldn't feel but to blame myself for this,
If it's wouldn't have been for me
she wouldn't be in this situation
Guilt is bitch...
And right now that guilt is strangling me...
With eyes full of tears,
hearts full of guilt,
sleep finally took pity on me,
and I finally drifted off to sleep.

बस झुकी नज़रे और एक मुस्कुराहट आई,
हां बस कुछ इस तरह ही मेरी तरफ मेरी मौत आई।

-

That deep bellow of pain
Was unmistakable
The face that I yearn to gaze upon
The restraint I so dearly holding onto
You deteriorated with just one glance
I've been busy, very busy
Deciding between the grim or grin
Anxiously awaiting the final call
Despondent to fate we lead here
Catapulted the luck from reach
Though I dare wish
Though I dare see you
Though I dare imagine us together
Amidst the cacaophony of misery
In a little corner away from world,
Basking in each others touch...
Yet from last few days
Fear grasping me in its claws
So my darling
I've been busy, very busy
Collecting the four leaf clover,
I'm busy looking at the night sky
Wishing upon every shooting star I see,
I've been busy
So very busy to be with you...

-

The moment secluded from time
I still live there with you
The delicacy of our time
The speculation of my love for you
Haul off my sanity little by little every time
The swindler moments are just mist of time...
Where I still live with you...
Faint tug of clock went louder
with every passing second
Announcing our doom
The small space beyond time
I built a life there with you
Embracing us, shielding us
From the bustle and the noise around,
From the inevitable time...
They will try, you will attempt too
But can't get through
From the moment secluded from time
Where I still live with you...
