इस रात का कोई सवेरा नहीं

ये जो घना अँधेरा है
वो ढलता क्यों नहीं
जिसको ज़्यादा चाहो
वो ही मिलता क्यों नहीं

ज़िन्दगी तेज़ रफ़्तार से चल कर
फिर आज राहें हैं थमी
मुस्कुराहटो के समंदर भर कर
लो आ गयी आँख में फिर वो नमी

वही मौसम, वो लम्हा है
क्या तेरी कमी तो नही
नहीं- नहीं अब हमें
तेरी जुस्तजू भी नही

बस अब बहुत हुआ
इस मर्ज़ का कोई इलाज ही नहीं
सपनो भरी ज़िन्दगी जी कर
आज, एक बार फिर, मैं वहीँ की वहीँ

If you lost her- you deserved it!

First love is a learning
And so you risk too less.
But taking things for granted
Always leaves a big mess.

When your world revolves around it
And nothing else you adore.
There is so much as you can give
And have nothing left no more.

Easy come easy go,
And you don't value what you get,
You may forgive for a lifetime
But there are things you won't forget.

There are reasons on your mind
And you think it's okay, you know!
But soon all realize
You reap what you sow.

Now do what you want
And be what you want to be.
Embrace all your coolness
Cause now you are free.

But remember,

There will be a time
When folks will have their ones
And if you are lucky, you'll realize
What you had done!

So, when noblest of things backfire
Even when you put your heart and soul in it.
Let go.. cause if there was no fear of losing
It probably was not worth it!

May you get what you are really looking for. God bless!

You shouldn't have!

You
made me smile when
I was down,
Brought me food when
I was hungry,
... you shouldn't have!

You
hugged me when
I was angry,
Kissed me when
I was sad,
... you shouldn't have!

You
danced with me when
I was happy,
Talked when
I was mad,
... you shouldn't have!

You
walked with me when
I was tired,
Altered me when
I was bad,
... you shouldn't have!

You
touched me when
I was lonely,
And then you said ...
... you loved me,
... you shouldn't have!

Déjà vu

Good morning LA! 
In the land of lotus eaters, time plays tricks on you. One day you are dreaming, the next, your dream has become your reality. It was the best of times, if only someone had told me! Mistakes were made, hearts were broken, harsh lessons learnt. He goes on without me. While I drown myself in the sea of pointless recollections. I don't know how I got here. But here I am, rotting away in the warm California Sun. There are things I need to figure out, for their sake at least. The clock is ticking, the gap is widening. They won't always luv me- 'no matter what'.
Later!

Last words

I am a fool,
a fool hopelessly in love.
So much so that
a re-emphasized break up call
makes me think
that it might be for reuniting
That every move you make,
every word you say against being together,
I understand it in the meaning
you don't intend it to be.
That when I hear your voice
after a long, real long time
my heart beats fast
in anticipation of hearing
something it waited for all this while.
The words that it craved for!
A hope that made it beat
just for this supposed day.

I believed the universe

conspires for making me have what I want.

But as always,

the reality bites!

And so today I promise,

I wont let you know

that I keep any hope; my only aid for a survival.

I wont let you know,

about my longing for you.

For you don't want to see me

and so now will become invisible too.

Yes,

I will even forget you

for your happiness!
