Ek woh shaadi wala ghar, ek woh saja hua aasmaan; Ek woh duniya bhar ka andhera, ek woh saja hua shaadi wala ghar. ✨

Ranjha-Majnu bhi mujhe, Aashiq hi kahenge, Dekh le agar woh bhi usse, Mere saath dewaane woh bhi marenge. Gore gaal hai, Lambe baal hai, Baalo par lipta mogre ka gajra, Choodiyaan chup hoti nahi uski, Hassi uski mere kaano mein goonjti hai, Baatein kam hi woh khair karti hai. Pakda gaya hu, Dekhte hue usse, Bas ek muskurahat dekar woh chali gayi hai, Ranjha-Majnu bhi mujhe, Aashiq hi kahenge, Dekh le agar woh bhi usse, Mere saath dewaane, woh bhi marenge.

I hate that, At the end of every day, My heart still misses the warmth of yours, Despite the distances, Despite the years, Despite not talking for so many days. Why does my heart think, It'll be okay, If I go back to you, When it was you who left in the first place? I hate that. i don't want to, but i do.

Naye naye shauk hai ab jinke, Unhe kya bataye ki shauk asal mein kya cheez hai, Humne toh shauk paale bhi hai, Aur utaare bhi hai, Dil ke shauk rakhna bhi ek naseeb hai.

I walk in the dark, Only to be felt closer to the stars, Than the Earth I'm walking on, And most further away from you.

Everything I've done today has felt like hitting a reset button, Giving up worries, Working towards goals, Getting tasks ticked off the mental to-do-list, And achieving this sense of accomplishment somehow. More to go, More to win, More to do. It never stops. until it does.

Things that I observed in January New year was just a change in dates for me, everything else felt same. I need to work on myself so much. I think I am not ready for a person yet. I think I don't have any space in my heart. I am scared. I wanted to run away, but, I stayed. Sometimes silently, sometimes violently. A stitch in time saves nine. Facts. I pushed myself for 31 more days than I thought I could. Damn. I realised my book needs another section. Socialization: 0. Social

Poetry book drafts, Sorted and edited in the mountains, Folded and kept in between other books, Away from the eyes of readers who want to read it all, Only to be kept in secret, Because I'm not ready for the world to see it yet, Maybe because it's not ready completely yet.

I've so much to do, So much to say, So much to write, So much to talk. Without anyone, To help, To hear, To read, To listen.

I recently read something on the internet and it made me pause, "neither of us would call, but i know both of us would answer" This didn't just make me pause, It made me implement it in my life today. I have stopped my self from making a move, For reasons citing "protection of my heart" Yet, I replied instantly, When I could see your name in the notification bar. Funny how life gave a theory and practical experience so quickly, so brilliantly.

You wanted different, That's why it feels so lonely right now. Lonely, not because there's no one, there are so many people who are supporting you to grow in this new phase. Yet, it feels so lonely, so detached, so far from everything and everyone. You are leveling up. Keep going. And, remember, you're not really lonely. Look around.

Note to self: You don't search for serendipity. Serendipity finds you.
