ربّ فیر مینوں منہ نئی لاندا
Maayin Methon’ Russya ‘ Na kar

In English we call them Dark Circles but in urdu
Adhurey khwabo ka qabristan hai ye,
yahan qisse chhupe hai daur-e-hayat ke!

Har raat meri aankhein inhi sochon mein ghum ho jaati hain;
Ke mera maqsad-e-hayaat kya tha,
Aur mujhe thaka kin kaamon ne diya!

Read somewhere,
“Jab haasil hojaye tou khaak barabar; rizq bhi, ishq bhi, raqeeb bhi.”
and I have been witnessing this to a scary amount.

American philosopher Ralph Emerson once asked a heart-wrenching question:
"How much of human life is lost in waiting?"
And the stalwarts of Urdu poetry Jaun Elia, Parveen Shakir and Faiz Ahmed Faiz expressed the agonizing feeling of waiting for someone who is never coming back through their poetry:
Jaun Elia wrote:
Woh jo na aane waala hai na us se mujh ko matlab tha aane waalo se kya matlab aate hai aate honge.
Parveen Shakir Wrote:
Woh na aayega hame malum tha is sham bhi Intezaar uska magar kuch soch kar karte rahe.
And Faiz Ahmed Faiz wrote:
Na jaane kis liye ummeedwaar baitha hu Ek aisi raah per jo teri rahguzar bhi nahi.
And I felt like being stuck in time where every moment feels long filled with some hope and the worry that the person I'm waiting for may never return.

Mujhe aksar unhi cheezon ki khwahish hui hai
jo mujhse pohonch mei door hain,
jaise ki Chaand, jaise Woh.

جو ہم پہ گزری ہے شاید سبھی پہ گزری ہے
فسانہ جو بھی سُنا، کچھ سُنا سُنا سا لگا
اقبال عظیم
Jo hum pe guzri hai shyd sabhi pe guzri hai
Fasana jo bhi suna, kuch suna suna sa laga

Kitab Sada Rahegi Kab Tak, Kabhi To Aghaz-e-Baab Hoga
Jinhon Ne Basti Ujaar Dali, Kabhi To Unka Hisab Hoga
Seher Ki khushiyan Manane Walo, Seher k Tewar Bata Rahe Hain
Abhi to Itni Ghutan Barhegi, Ke Sans Lena Azaab Hoga
Wo din gaya jab ke har sitam ko, ada-e-mehbub samajh k chup the
Uthe Gi Hum Per Jo Eent Koi, To Pathar Uska Jawab Hoga
Sukoon-e-Sehra Me Basne Walo, Zara Ruton ka Mizaj Samjho
Jo Aaj Ka Din Sukoon Se Guzra, To kal Ka Mousam Kharab Ho ga

When Franz Kafka said, "I am not well, I could have built the pyramids with the effort it takes me to cling onto life and reason."
When Frida Kahlo said, "I hope the exit is joyful and I hope never to return."
When Elizabeth Wurtzel said, "I want to explain how exhausted I am. Even in my dreams. How I wake up tired. How I'm being drowned by some kind of black wave."
And when Jaun Elia said, "Har haal mein hasne ka hunar paas tha jinke, woh rone lage hai, toh koi baat toh hogi."
