To life, to you
To me, to us
To this crazy beautiful world
To love, to pain
To all of it, and all of you
I'll take it, I'll feel it
All of you, and all of this
Because I know,
I know this world is big
And we're just a speck in the universe
So, I'll hold you close
To never let you go
But if you lose me to the chaos os life
Please come for me to take me back home
As the world out there is dark at times
And sometimes it's dark here, inside me
So guide me right I promise we'll be alright
Because you,
You're my light

Somewhere in the movies I had seen
Somewhere in the books I had read
Love is not to be tamed
Love is kind
Love sets you free
If you ask me how I knew I loved you
It was the day when I looked at you
And I didn't want you to be mine
It was the day when I knew you would leave
But I had no control over my feelings
It was the day when I wished for your wish to come true
Because I hated to see your face frown
You are not mine, I know
Not that I am happy with it
Had I been given a choice
I would have taken it without a second thought
For you made me believe in craziness again
Had I been given a wish
I would have wished for you
For you gave music to my poems
Had I been asked to try
I would have tried to make it work
For you really felt like my soul mate sent from above

Kub tak bhala yu tu
En pannon mei chupa k rakhegi ye ehsaas?
Bhala kub tak
Hothon pe liye ye nakli muskaan chalti rahegi tu?
Bhala kub tak
Dil ko khamosh karke dimag ki sunti rahegi tu?
Bhala kub tak
Apne sapno ki duniya ko kuchalti rahegi tu?
Bhala kub tak
Bheed mei khud ka dam ghoonti rahegi tu?
Bhala kub tak
Es duniya k pinjrey mei band rahegi tu?
Tu...
Jaanti hai tu khud ko
Pehchanti hai
Tu hai aazad panchi
Teri rooh ko sukoon milega es pinjrey k bahar hi
Hoothon se nhi, dil se hasegi tu pankho ko faila k hi
En nadaan aankhon mei sapne liye
Sapno ka tera ghar ek nhi hai
Manzil teri, tuje pata hai ek nahi hai
Tu panchi hai
Tu apna raasta khud chunti hai
Kyuki tu, tu panchi hai
Tu aazad karle khud ko
Khud hi k banaye hue pinjrey mei aakhir kab tak band rahegi tu?

It hurts to let you go
But it'll hurt me more to not see you follow your dreams
But before you go, just let me hug you for one last time
Let me live that one moment of peace in your arms
Where the time will stop
But heartbeat won't
Where you'll be mine
And there will be some time
To feel that moment of love and pain
To understand that life is no game
It will hurt me to see you go
And lose this chance for us
But before you go
Promise me you'll do good
Promise me when the cool breeze will make you feel cold
You'll miss me like a morning sunshine
I know you'll find love in another person
Because I'm like a scent, and I'll fade away
But when the nostalgia will hit you, will you remember me like a long lost fragrance?
It hurts to not hold you tight
But it'll hurt me more to see you suffocate here
So you go
Go before I say all these things
Because after saying all of this
It'll hurt even more to see you go

There is this boyish charm in your smile
That makes me feel all of this is fine
You talk like a saint and also like a teenager
Maybe that's why I feel what I do
Consequences, risk-elimination, practicality
We all work by these terms
But the heart can't follow your rules, my rules, not even society's
You and I, we both feel this feeling
Now I sit here and ask myself
What is it about you that I want you
What is this weird feeling when I see your name?
Why my heart smiles when you smile?
Feeling all these butterflies in my stomach, I felt when I was 18!
I wanna be young in love but not dumb and stupid, again
This feeling, I won't give it a name yet
But it makes me believe in innocence, goodness, and all other beautiful things
Things that now I want to do just with you
No, I don't mean just the sex and the kisses
I meant so many other beautiful things
It's all scary, isn't it?
But I feel the distance can't fade away this feeling
And if it does, at least we'll know it was unreal
Right now, I don't wanna waste more time
And be with you
I know, I know you'll leave
And I want you to go to your magical place
Because I know your purpose and if I can, I'll help someday, maybe in the smallest possible way
People might call me a fool
To have understood you and your goals and still want you
But you know I don't give a damn
Oh wait, even you might say the same
But...
Maybe that's how you're supposed to feel
A little foolish, a little crazy, a little insane
A believer, a dreamer, a risk-taker, and also, maybe a little scared?
Whatever little it is, it's real I know
Because the way I feel with you, it's different, you know?
It's midnight
And I think about you
Also, about other things like...
Watching sunsets and tell you about my childhood
Dancing slowly on our favourite song
You playing the guitar and I will be your singer
Maybe I'll suck at it but don't you dare to stop
You reading an excerpt from your favourite book
I'll listen happily and watch your eyes that reminds me of the moonlight
But wait, not just that
I also want us to help each other grow
And learn things from you that I already don't know
I want all this but I want to take it slow
To have a bond like this, is it possible or no?
To give someone space to grow and shine but to love them a little more every time they're back in your arms?
And most importantly, is it just me feeling all of this alone?

Let's Talk
Let's talk about the things we never talk about
Let's talk about our dreams
Dreams that we're scared to say out loud
Let’s talk about our childhood
For the little child that is still in you
Let's talk about our siblings who we fight with
But will also fight with the world for them
Let’s talk about our scars
Scars that made us who we are today
Let’s talk about hope and expectations
Expectations that we set from ourselves and also with the people around us
But, let's be honest with each other and tell what expectations are wrong and harming our souls
Let’s talk about life
And also about death... and why you're scared of it?
Let’s talk about your hobbies and your perspective on life
Let’s talk about what you do on our weekends apart from drinking, clubbing, and binge-watching Netflix
Let’s talk about books that ignite our soul
Let’s talk about music that gives us hope
Let’s talk about places that make us feel home
Let’s talk about the history that takes us back in time
Let's talk about love... love that has no language
But still can be felt by the little things that people do for you
Let's talk about evenings that you want to spend with someone special on a beach -- singing, dancing, and laughing your heart out
Let's talk about the better days that are yet to come
And also talk about helping each other in the days that don't shine as bright as you want them to
Let’s talk about the little things that matter in life
Things that we don’t talk about anymore

Hope is a dangerous thing
To hope is to take a chance. To hope is to give destiny a chance to hurt you, again. To hope is to be vulnerable. To hope is to live. To hope is to dream. To hope is to let lose control, over everything. To hope is to also take control over a few things.
Hope softly murmurs- knock the door one more time, take a chance one last time. This time, I’m sure it’s gonna be different. Hope tells your heart to believe in it- only to get betrayed, maybe?
Hope is the thing with feathers, some people save it in the books like some buried secret whilst others just let it roam freely.

Dark Love
I always believed in Love
And I believed in us
Dark Love?
No, it was us
But was it worth?
You loved me and I loved you more
Or maybe, you loved me more
But what's Love?
The sinking feeling
Destroying each other badly
Selfishly imposing your decisions on me
Not once did we think of each other's happiness
Fighting for Love, that's what we thought
But where was the Love?
I know I'm fucked up
But I still believe you're the only one for me
Baby, you're like a bullet that I should dodge
But every time I see you
I forget the pain you put me through
Listening to my heart is risky for me
Because you're indeed toxic for me
Maybe we just loved too hard
Not knowing that it could get this dark
And we've lost each other this time
And there is no coming back in this life
You said you want to change the past
But you moved away so fast
I was naive to believe your lies
Because words only kept it alive
So I kept giving you chances
That you clearly never deserved
Sometimes, I still want you back in my life
But finally, I've accepted
We both have fucked up badly this time

The Voice
Inside your head, there’s a little voice
But can you hear it in this world that's full of noise?
Your opinions- they don't matter
And it’s my story, I'm not here to flatter
The silent night
Why are you scared of it?
Is it the darkness out there
Or your own demons you fear?
The moon- the only hope of light in this dark night
But why are you so lost and not feeling alright ?
The beauty of sunrise
We only witness with our eyes
Trying to capture it in our device
Ah, you're so wise
Hustle has become the new cool, why?
Because it provides an illusion of a productive life
The race- they say it’s not important
But running in it ain't a pure enforcement?
The lies, oh they tell it with a poker face
But no one understands that life is no game
The voice, yes, that little voice
It exists in my head, and yours too
But we’re just busy, and have zero clue
About that little voice
That's screaming so hard to guide

The baggage
One bag in her hand
One on her shoulder
But she was bolder
Bolder than the baggage of life
A sad song playing in the background
Her face frowned
She continued to walk
But didn't talk
The sad song still playing in her head
And her emotions can't be read
She looked at the infinite sky
And told herself that it's a lie
The baggage is heavy
But it can't break her hopes
The baggage will grow
And maybe, sometimes she will feel low
But her belief will act as an opposite force
And it's just about the period of course
And, the baggage
It's just a beginning
Of another learning
