Today the breeze gave away the scent


Aj iss kay siwa aur kuch nahi soojh raha.... 


The eyes of an anguished heart open...
No longer moist.. Bereft of tears
The perplexed vision
Remained unmoved.. Devoid of response
The soul heard.. An unusual sound
That took the pluck of life away
As wondrous love revealed itself
The fairy vanished..The ecstasy lost
Nor you remained.. Nor I was found
mere oblivion was all there was...





Whats aches one more?
Loss or the realization that the battle was never worth it? 


What pains one more?
Unrequited love or the realization that it was never meant to be?


What hurts one more?
Moving forward or the realization that you do not anymore belong to what you thought described your existence?




There are too many questions, and the mind wanders for an answer in the dark abyss that only the heart seems to know all too well. 


Na hazar hai na khatar hai, na raja hai ne dua hai
Na khayaal e bandagi hai na tamana e khudai

Neither distance nor fear...
neither hope nor prayer
neither thoughts of subjugation
nor desire of godliness















Today the breeze blew with the scent of the beloved
A scent that brought one the chalice of life,
A scent that kills one like a vengeful sword ..
Today the breeze gave away the scent .....

and made it just too hard to breathe!

Realizing the worthless nature of it before the battle begins is quite nice.

I like your writings here, good perspectives.
