Yeh Khaalipan

Jab Meri Bechaini Mit Jayegi
Jab Mere Dilko Sukoon Mil Jayega
Yeh Khaalipan Mit Jayega

Do Pal Ki Chandni Ke Liye
Aj Bhi Zinda Hoon Main
Meri Khaamoshi Ke Ageh Aasmaan Bhi Khatam Ho Jayega

Kehne Ke Liye Toh Roz Marta Hoon Main
Thoda Aur Marne Ke Liye
Yeh Deewana Kal Phir Ayega

Love

Oblivion mind,
wandering in thoughts.
Idiotic smile,
promises and hopes.
Hand in hand,
tumbling on slopes.
This is love

Running away from this world.
Warm bodies sliding in sheets,
to find another world.
Burning in cold flames.
No fear ... no shame ... no games
This is love

Isolation

How can I tell you?
I can't stay with you.

Neither I can give up on you.
Fear of losing you is losing me.
It feels like slow death every night.

But we are just stuck in our spaces!
Unable to connect from two feet distance.

Burning Soul

SOMETHING BURNS INSIDE MY CHEST
 BILE RISES IN MY THROAT
 I MISS THOSE KISSES
 I MISS THOSE HUGS
 I MISS MY LOVE

SOMETHING BURNS INSIDE MY CHEST
 BILE RISES IN MY THROAT
 WHEN I SEE LOVERS ON STREET
 MY EYES FEEL COLD
 I LOOK DOWN AND TURN AROUND
 TO LET MY TEARS FALL

SOMETHING BURNS INSIDE MY CHEST
 BILE RISES IN MY THROAT
 FISTS PUSH MY POCKETS DOWN
 WITH SHOULDERS SHRUGGED ALONG
 I WALK EMPTY STREETS ALONE AT NIGHT
 TO TALK WITH PAGAN GOD

SOMETHING BURNS INSIDE MY CHEST
 BILE RISES IN MY THROAT

Friendship

One moment is gone,
another moment is coming along.
Looking for some more moments.
Making the best way out.

I want to make a new world with you,
or a new place where we never have been to.
Walking together in the warm rain,
clouds below our feet

I just hate the format of this world
I feel we are stuck in our own body
Testing our ability to be testified
Cursing our own fate to be crucified

God is playing with us silently.
Made us mortal and watching us dance until the doom,
or maybe it’s just my imagination.
And god has abandoned us all.

Everything seems too tedious
When you are not with me
I am learning to live and love from you,
without complaining.

Making my life fascinating with you
You’re the one who love me,
my flaws, my honesty, my sadness.
You are such a madness.

You are the moment I can’t afford to lose…

Over My Head

My head is so full

Loving you is so hard

Watching you feel

Burns my heart

Thy tender lips

And pale eyes

Taking me along

In your paradise

Events of past

Have bruised my mind

Love for hate

you always render

Wanting to change

Before farewell

I want to surrender
