You can discuss your problems with her, she might help or at least listen. Movies ? Oh she likes melodramatic shit don't bother to tell her anything about the plan. Night out ? No,she has a strict household. She was vent texting you and you said cannot talk ? Ooh fine leave her for on read she would not mind, never does. You are fustrated, you can go to her she will calm you down. She asked you for a treat ? Nevermind she was joking.

And that was how you lost her, I can tell because I was her.

Before the pain turned into poetry, it was ugly too.

u have to love yourself to the point that it literally gives you the ick when someone doesn’t respect and value you

Tum toh khush raha karti thi ?

Hasti thi, hasaaya karti thi ?

Kya huya uss khushi ko ?

Wo khili huyi hasi ko ?

Agar tab chor diye hota phir ab tak aadat ho jati na ? Jab badh ke aadat badal liye jate hai toh saare kasamein vaadein tut hi jate hai.

Ruk gaye tha... uske liye. Wo, jisko samhaalte samhaalte main khud bikhar sa gaya. Wo, jisne purani aadat k tarah mujhko bhoola diya. Wo, jiska duniya mein kho jane se darr lagta tha.

Ab bhi ruke huye hai, uss ke liye. Usko samhal ne k liye dusra koi mil jaye, toh hum bhi ab aage chal ke apne aadaton se ubhar jaye

Khud hi durr karke, mujhse shikayat karte ho Tum bhi deewangi mein kya harqat karte ho

Sunã hai log use aañkh bhar ke dekhte haiñ toh uske shahr meñ kuch din thehr kar dekhte haiñ

Sunã hai bole toh bātoñ se phool jhaḍte haiñ yeh baat hai toh chalo baat karke dekhte haiñ

Sunã hai raat use chāãnd taktã rehtã hai sitãre bām-e-falak se utar ke dekhte haiñ

Sunã hai din ko use titliyāñ satātī haiñ sunā hai raat ko jugñu guzar ke dekhte haiñ

sunã hai hashr haiñ uskī ghazal sī aankhēin sunã hai usko hiran dashr bhar ke dekhte haiñ

sunā hai uske labōn sẽ gulãb jalte haiñ toh ham bahār pe ilzam dhar ke dekhtē haiñ

sunā hai uske badan kī tarash aisi hai ki phool apnī qabā.eñ katar ke dekhte haiñ

kise nasīb ke be-pairahan use dekhe kabhī kabhī dar o dīvār ghar ke dekhte haiñ

kahāniyan hi sahi sab mubālghė hī sahī agar vo ķhvāb hai tābīr kar ke dekhte haiñ

ab uss ke shehr meñ thahreñ ki kucch kar jaa.eñ farāź aao sitarē safar ke dekhte haiñ

Aur sakun aisa ki mar jaane ko ji chahta hai

Kyun ki umse ab milna nahi likha hai iss kismat mein

Ab bass tumse durr jaane ki himmat maangte hai ibadat mein

Agar wo chahe toh mera umar bhar ka gham ek haatheli mein tham ley

Lekin uss hatheli pe kisi aur naam ki mehendi kyun likhva li ?

When Mirza Ghalib said,

Ummeedein insaan se lagakar, shikhwa Khuda se karte ho

Tum bhi Ghalib kamaal karte ho

اُمیدیں انسان سے لگاکر، شکھوا خدا سے کرتے ہو

تم بھی غالب کمال کرتے ہو۔

Jo laut aaye toh kuch kehena nahi bus dekhna unhe gaur se..
