This song will drown me in its sound,
Like waves that rise too high to flee,
Each lyric wraps me, pulling down,
Until the sea takes hold of me.

Tere pyaar mein Dil haar ke, maine kya paaya, kya gawaya....

Tell me where not to go, I'll go there only

"The heart was made to be broken. Time and time again, it shatters into pieces that can never fully be put back together. Each break leaves a scar, a reminder that no matter how much you try to shield yourself, pain finds a way in. It's inescapable, and you’re left to carry the fragments of what was once whole, wondering if love is nothing more than the prelude to inevitable suffering."

Stay~

She seems like the type who has it all together. The kind who laughs easily, who speaks with wisdom far beyond her years. From the outside, can never guess that behind that composed smile is someone who feels everything so deeply. But when I started knowing her, i started to notice the cracks-the way the smallest things get under her skin, the way she overthinks every word, every glance, every silence. It's not that she's fragile; it's that her heart is wired to care too much, to notice what others miss.

Being this way is both her strength and her weakness. She'll laugh off the world's problems but cry over a comment that didn't sit right. She'll tell everything is fine when inside she's fighting a storm of insecurities and emotions that she doesn't even fully understand. And while others might brush it off, she feels it all-every small wound leaves a lasting mark. But does that make her weak? No. It makes her human, in the most painfully beautiful way.

Loving someone like her isn't always easy. She'll need constant reassurance, she'll second-guess her worth, and she'll get sad over things you'd never even think twice about. But here's the thing- seeing past the surface and appreciate her sensitivity, and understanding that her love is just as deep as her pain. She may seem difficult, but I'm lucky enough to love someone like her, and these little things doesn't push me away- I let them be the reason for my stay.

दर्द तो सबको है, सुनने वाला कोन है!

Relationships that survive the test of time isn’t as sugarcoated as they portray in films. But life is easier when one has an ideal partner to go through life’s challenges.

मन कस्तूरी रे,
जग दस्तूरी रे
बात हुई ना पूरी रे

Paat na paaya meetha paani, Or chor ki doori re."

Even the purest of things, i.e. sweet river water, Couldn't bridge the gap of this side and that side.

(The intent being that even Ganges can't fill the divides between castes and genders that we have created in our society. Deepak is of a low caste while his love Shalu belonged to an upper caste. Deepak always had a feeling of inferiority in the relationship just because of the family where he was born. Even something as pure as Love could not suppress these divides.)

"Mann kasturi jag dasturi Baat hui naa puri re, Khoje apni gandh na paawey"

The heart is like the Kasturi, that doesn't get closure. Kasturi is the musk deer that goes mad searching for the scent of musk around it, not realising that the essence comes from within.

"If you love someone, let them go," as if it were that easy. Truth is, each one of us is holding on to something-maybe a dream, perhaps a job, or a person. The internet is full of masterclasses on letting go, pieces of advice, and techniques on the art of detachment. But if it was that simple, it wouldn't feel the way it does. Like watching a sunset, so beautiful yet so painful at the same time. You know it's coming, but it still catches you off guard. Slowly and slowly, you watch the colors fade out, the light dwindles, and the sky darkens. Letting go of the person you love is a bittersweet moment, a reminder that even the most beautiful things come to an end.

And while it is true, that you should never chase or beg someone to be in your life, 'letting go' is the moment when you truly accept that there is no coming back from here. It feels scary because it is a leap of faith into the unknown. Deep down you know, that you'll never be the same. But you also know that staying where you are is no longer an option. So you take a deep breath, close your eyes, and jump. And whatever is meant to happen in the story next, you allow it to unfold.

At the end of the day, true love is not just about the depth of your love, but also about the courage it takes to let go. It is also about respecting the wishes of that person, honoring their decision, and moving on with your life. No matter how uncomfortable it feels like, it is about knowing that better things are yet to come.

jo jaisa hai usko waisa apna lena sahi hai, ya jo aap badal sakte hai usko badal dena ?

Ki jo paas hai usko paas rehne dena sahi hai ? Ya jo door hai usko paas lane ki koshish karna ?

You look
And I fall
After all these months
I still play
Those first moments
When I saw you
Walking into the room
That was what?
Love?
Yeah, still is
After all these years
I changed through and through
Which proves
Love is loyal and stubborn
We are not.

The broken will always be able to love harder than most. Once you've been in the dark, you learn to appreciate everything that shines.

I have never surrendered myself entirely to anyone but you. And to let my heart speak, when I am pressed against you, is an emotion and a peace that overflows all imagination.

When you get home really late from work and you just totally beat and you house is freezing because it's autumn and you haven't really turned the heat up yet. She's already in bed trying to fall asleep because she's had a long day too and she lifts the covers so you can climb under and then scoots her hips so she's pressing up against you and your so toasty and tired that even though there's movement below the belt the concept of sacrificing even a single degree of body heat is so appalling you don't even consider anything sexual so you pull her closer and you just fall asleep smelling her shampoo, slotted together like comfy puzzle pieces. It's better than drugs.

I've been told that people in the army do more by 7:00 AM than I do in an entire day,

but if I wake at 6:59 AM and turn to you to trace the outline of your lips with mine, I will have done enough and killed no one in the process.

When Adam bit the apple he did it because he trusted Eve. Because he loved her. Adam bit into the apple because the woman he loved told him to, no matter what God said. No matter the rules of heaven. What's heaven to a woman's love anyway? What's God to your wife? The first sins of humanity, were trusting others. Eve trusted a snake, Adam trusted Eve, and I trust you. Maybe that's a sin, just like the first couple. Maybe everyone's right about us and we're sinners and we offend God. But like I said, what's God to a woman's love anyway? What has heaven got that I can't find sitting next to you on a cool autumn morning?

You deserve love that waits for you. Love that says do not leave yet. Love that gives their share of food to you. Love that sacrifices and cares for you. And love that tells you let me arrange this world for you.

Being born into a middle-class family that lives day to day is a peculiar kind of blessing a bittersweet one, I would say. It pushes you to dream, to strive, and to risk everything for the life you envision. Yet at times, that journey demands you to leave your town and all that's familiar. It's painful, but when your hometown holds no opportunities that align with your aspirations, you have to move on.

There's also the weight of your parents' expectations. They want you to fulfill their dreams, and there's nothing inherently wrong with that. But someone else's dreams can't ignite the fire needed for action, especially if your own dreams stretch beyond theirs. You find yourself rooted in the mud of obligation, but you must take that leap of faith. You might risk everything, but when you have nothing left to lose, every step forward is a win. And when the chips are down there's no better person than yourself to bet on.

Noor bhi, guroor bhi aur door bhi

The calm energy of someone who has been through a lot, who has suffered deeply, is unmatched. They are among the kindest souls you will ever meet. True kindness often comes at a cost; you cannot be genuinely kind without losing something. It's the loss of something dear that helps you see the true value of everything around you.
