I am not Me!

The person, 

I now see, 

In the mirror, 

I do not recognise her anymore. 

It is someone, 

Who lost herself, 

To win something 

Useless. 

To find meanings 

In meaningless things. 

To put life 

In lifeless people. 

To see the best 

In the worst. 

To live from 

Someone else’s perspective. 

To follow 

Someone else’s footsteps. 

To lead 

A never-ending pathway. 

To please those who 

Never get pleased. 

To only get disappointed. 

To only get numb. 

To only give up on 

Herself at the last. 

Maybe, Sometimes, 

Choosing yourself 

Sounds selfish 

And choosing them 

Sounds cowardice.

Seasons✨

Days of summer, I wait to run wild,  Akin that little child-  Carefree, unaware of the world,  Living in the moment, Every single day!  Monsoon brings love and light,  Dark gloomy days know my plight,  Thunder weaving stories I have never heard,  Before it's sunny again,  Until there's cloudless days,  Walking through unnoticed hallways!  Like leaves in autumn,  Leaving comfort behind,  Letting go of loved ones,  By making changes!  Like mornings of winter,  Waiting for sunlight,  Snow fights, chilly nights,  Looking over the city lights!  While I am doing all that,  I hear a voice calling my name,  Calling me? Yes, it's calling...  And me...? I am falling,  Until spring breathes me back to life again,  Help me, I am falling!  After every winter night,  Before the next summer morning!

Yeh Ghaav💔

Mujhe khabar thi,  Ke milenge,  Ke zaroor milenge,  Do milenge,  Ya chaar milenge,  Apitu yeh naah khabar thi,  Ke itne saare milenge,  Ke gin naah sakenge,  Ke yeh ghaav,  Ishq ke,  Itne chubhenge,  Ke seh naah sakenge…  Ke reh bhi naah sakenge,  Ke keh bhi naah sakenge,  Yeh ghaav,  Itne gehre honge,  Ke kabhi mit bhi naah sakenge…  Mujhe khabar thi,  Ke milenge,  Ke zaroor milenge,  Hriday pe milenge,  Hriday me milenge,  Yeh ghaav,  Ishq ke,  Be-intehaan rahenge…  Ke itne rahenge,  Naah jee sakenge,  Naah mar sakenge,  Or agar  Mar bhi gaye,  Tabh bhi,  Yeh ghaav,  Ishq ke,  Kabhi naah mitenge…  Mujhe khabar thi,  Ke milenge,  Ke zaroor milenge,

We Don’t Know What Tomorrow Will Bring🌸

We don’t know what tomorrow will bring, and maybe that’s the beauty of it— the uncertainty, the way each dawn rises like a question, a blank page waiting for our touch. We make plans, draw lines in the sand, but the tide comes, erases what we thought was certain, leaving us with something new, something we didn’t expect.  We don’t know what tomorrow will bring, and that is both the promise and the fear. We stand on the edge of today, looking into the mist, trying to catch a glimpse of what lies ahead, but the future hides, dancing just out of reach, teasing us with its mystery. We want to know, to hold it in our hands, to shape it into something we can control. But it slips through our fingers like sand, like time.  Tomorrow could bring rain, or it could bring light. It could be filled with laughter or laced with tears. We make ourselves believe we are ready for it, whatever it is, but the truth is, we are always a little unprepared, always a little unsure of what comes next....
